What is a phosphodiester bond​

Biology
1 answer:
Nana76 [90]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The correct answer is - A covalent bond between a phosphate group and two 5-carbon ring carbohydrates over two ester bonds.

Explanation:

A bond between a 5 carbon sugar and a phosphate group makes the sugar-phosphate-sugar backbone in nucleic acids. A diester bond links two different nucleotides together to form a polynucleotide.

These are the strong covalent bonds that links a 3' carbon atom of one sugar molecule and the 5' carbon atom of another in deoxyribose sugar in DNA and ribose sugar in RNA.

Which mutation is an example of an insertion mutation?
Burka [1]

Answer:

d. AAU CCG CAU UGG A​

Explanation:

A mutation is any change or alteration to the sequence of a gene. There are, however, different types of mutation depending on how it occurs in the gene. One of these types is INSERTION MUTATION as mentioned in this question. Insertion mutation is a type of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base is added to the sequence, hence, changing the reading frame of the original sequence.

In this question, the original mRNA sequence is given as: AAU CCG CAU GGA.

An insertion mutation will cause nucleotide base(s) to be added to this sequence, which will be noticed by an increase in number of bases in the sequence.

The correct answer is: AAU CCG CAU UGG A​. In this mutated sequence, nucleotide "U" has been added to the sequence.

Stages of mitosis and what happens in each stage.
Zina [86]
There are 4 stages in Mitosis...
Prophase:
It is the first phase in which the chromatin coil to become chromatids, and those chromatids pair up and the nuclear membrane surrounding them dissolves. The centrioles move to each end (pole) of the cell.
Metaphase:
Where the paired chromatids align in the centre of the cell and spindle fibres attach to them at the centromere. 
Anaphase:
The centrioles act as anchors, tearing the paired chromatids away from each other using the spindle fibres. Each paired chromatid moves to either (the opposite) end of the cell.
Telophase:
Where the chromatids elongate to form chromatin, and a nuclear membrane begins to form around the chromatin at each end of the cell. Cytokinesis occurs in this stage as the cell separates into two daughter cells. In animal cells, there is cleavage as the two cells are starting to separate. In plant cells, a plate begins to form.
