Answer:
50% G+C will have a higher Tm
Explanation:
The Temperature of Melting (Tm) refers to the temperature at which 50% of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) is changed to single-standard DNA (ssDNA). In the double helix of DNA, Adenine bases always pair with Thymine bases through two hydrogen bonds, whereas Guanine bases always pair with Cytosine bases through three hydrogen bonds. In consequence, a DNA molecule containing a higher GC content is more stable than another DNA molecule containing a lower GC content. The Tm can be calculated as follows = 2 °C(A + T) + 4 °C(G + C) = °C Tm (this equation is useful for oligonucleotides of 14 to 20 base-length).
Answer:
pseudogenes
Explanation:
Pseudogenes are nonfunctional segments of DNA that resemble functional genes.
The haploid chromosomes would condense and chromosomes would move to the equatorial plane
Alternative ways of representing nucleic acid chains, in this case a single strand of DNA containing only three bases: cytosine (C), adenine (A), and guanine (G). ... This structural difference is critical to the different functions of the two types of nucleic acids.
