Answer:
1. replication
2. gene
3. strand polarity
4. translation
5. complementary base pairing
6. chromosome
7. antiparallel
8. transcription
9. allele
Explanation:
1. Replication is the process by which DNA is duplicated or the process of making another copy of DNA.
2. Gene is the physical unit of heredity i.e a segment of DNA transferred from parents to offsprings. A gene also encodes a useful products such as protein.
3. A DNA strand is a polar molecule, which is attributed to the phosphate group at the 5'-end of DNA and the hydroxyl group at the 3'-end of DNA.
4. Translation is the process whereby the information in a mRNA molecule is used to synthesize a protein.
5. Complementary base pairing is a phenomenon whereby Adenine (A) binds to thymine (T), guanine (G) binds to cytosine (C).
6. A chromosome contains of single long molecule of DNA coiled together around histone proteins. The chromosome is associated with different types of proteins.
7. In the double-stranded DNA molecule, one strand runs from 5' to 3' and the other runs from 3' to 5'. This is called ANTIPARALLEL nature of DNA.
8. Transcription is the process by which a DNA molecule is used to synthesize a mRNA single strand.
9. Allele is the alternative or contrasting form of a gene. Each allele is contributed by each parent
Answer:
Due to increase or decrease in the concentration of carbohydrates have no effect on protein concentration.
Explanation:
A diet having 90% carbohydrates support the same amount of protein in the human body as a diet that is only 15% carbohydrates because with the increase or decrease of carbohydrates in the diet does not increase the amount of protein. Protein and carbohydrates are two different things, proteins broken down into amino acid that is utilize by the body for making muscles while carbohydrates are broken down into glucose that is used by the body for performing daily activities.
Answer: Two molecules of H2A
Explanation:
Structural organization of nucleosomes were determined by isolating them from unfolded chromatin and it has been found that the basic units of chromatin are the nucleosomes which consist of histone octamers of two molecule each of histone H2A and other histone molecules like H2B, H3 and H4. The histones are wrapped around with 147bp of DNA in almost two (2) turns.
Answer:
The precise definition of pH is "the negative common logarithm of the activity of hydrogen ion in solution". For practical purposes, the activity is approximated as concentration in moles/L: pH = - log 10 ([H+]) .
