QuestionAnswer
Where are the sugar-phosphate backbones and the nitrogenous bases located in the DNA double helix? The sugar-phosphate backbones run along the outside of the double helix while the nitrogenous bases pair in the middle.
Information is stored in DNA by varying the sequence of the four types of _________in each strand. Nucleotides
Match the bases that pair the DNA molecules: Adrenine Guanine Match the bases that pair the DNA molecules: Thymine Cytosine
Regarding the chemical nature of nitrogenous bases in DNA, this is a correct statements: Adenine is a purine. Cytosine is a pyrimidine.
This molecule have the ability to serve as templates to produce precise copies of themselves? DNA
The two classes of nucleic acids are __________and _______. Please follow capitalization conventions when you spell out the nucleic acid acronyms. DNA (denoxyrihonucleic acid) RNA (ribonucleic acid)
The genetic code of cells are stored in molecules of? DNA
These nitrogenous bases are present in RNA? Cytosine, Adenine, Guanine, Uracli
The following would be found at the 3' end of the backbone of a polynucleotide chain? -OH group attached to a pentose sugar
What are the three basic components of a nucleotide? Nitrogenous base, pentose sugar and phosphate group
Identify the molecule shown in the diagram: Figure 3.18, page 44 ATP-Adenosine triphosphate
If a DNA double helix is composed of 20% A, then what is the percentage of T? 20%
