Answer:
The functional groups that define the two different ends of a single strand of nucleic acids are:
B. a free hydroxyl group on the 5' carbon a free hydroxyl group on the 3' carbon
G. a free phosphate group on the 5' carbon
Explanation:
A nucleic acid is a polymer formed of nucleotides that are linked with a phosphodiester bond. The structure of a nucleotide consists on a phosphate group linked to a pentose (ribose in RNA and deoxyribose in DNA) that is also attached to a nitrogenous base. The nitrogenous bases are adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine (in DNA) and uracil (in RNA).
DNA and RNA are nucleic acids which can be found in a double or single strand presentation.
Nucleic acids are synthesize in the 5’ to 3’ direction, so that is why the convention is that the sequences are written and read in that direction.
The strand of a nucleic acid is directional with an end-to-end orientation, where the 5’ end has a free hydroxyl or phosphate group on the 5' carbon of the terminal pentose, and the 3’ end has a free hydroxyl group on the 3’ carbon on the terminal pentose (ribose/ deoxyribose).
D. Nucleus

<span>Ribosomes are the protein builders or the protein synthesizers of the cell. They are like construction guys who connect one amino acid at a time and build long chains. Ribosomes are special because they are found in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.</span>
Answer:
Lymphatic system
Explanation:
The lymphatic system helps maintain fluid balance in the body by collecting excess fluid and particulate matter from tissues and depositing them in the bloodstream.
