Describe the structure of tRNA and explain how that structure is related to its function. Nucleic acids: Nucleic acids are mildly acidic due to the presence of the phosphate group on their nucleotide monomers. The name nucleic acid was derived from the fact that these b...
Describe levels of chromatin structure and explain how chromatin is decondensed to allow transcription. How DNA replication occurs? Explain about DNA replication. How does the nucleosome condense DNA? How is DNA replicated? What is the process and how does this affect the DNA chain?
In the first meiotic division (MI) of oocytes, the cortically positioned spindle causes bivalent segregation in which only the centre-facing homologue pairs are retained. ‘Selfish’ chromosomes are known to exist, which bias their spindle orientation and hence retention in the egg, a process known...
Chromosomes: Structure & Physical Features from Chapter 16/ Lesson 2 6.6K You've probably heard about chromosomes before, but how much do you truly know about them? This lesson will discuss their structure and features and will go over all of the vocabulary you need to know to be a chromos...
Describe the levels of structure in DNA and explain why DNA molecule are so stable. Deoxyribonucleic Acid Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the molecule that are responsible for carrying the genetic information that will be transferred from generation to generation. It is made up ...
Is the following statement true or false? Explain. Okazaki fragments are removed by a nuclease that degrades RNA. Okazaki fragments: The short lengths produced by this discontinuous replication are then covalently linked into a continuous polynucleotide chain. ...
A) Different specific chemical reactions break the DNA at each base. B) Fluorescent molecules can be used to detect DNA. C) The template is single-stranded DNA. D) Many steps c The formation of the nucleosome structure is the only condensing step in chrom...
