GCGTGCAC True or False: True True or False: Asymmetrical spacing of the backbones of the DNA double helix generates major and minor grooves True The addition of what key component to an endonuclease gene drive could cause a gene preventing transmission of malaria to not only be inserted into a mosquito and passed on to its offspring but also to be passed on to all future descendants of the offspring? CRISPR After a tautomeric shift in adenine, adenine bonds with cytosine. A mutation that causes a change in a single nucleotide in DNA changes the corresponding nucleotide in mRNA, resulting in a different codon. In a tautomeric shift hydrogen atoms move to form a base with altered hydrogen bonding properties True or False: True True or False: True Sets with similar terms2.6 and 2.7 Paper 2 Questions22 terms Kehinde_Ajayi9PLUS DNA Replication Vocabulary40 terms Emma_Rinne9 DNA Quiz Biology35 terms tobys315 bio ch. 11 review31 terms rebecca_schadoff Other sets by this creatorChemistry- weeks 1,2,342 terms kimberlyregalado emt tingz24 terms kimberlyregalado Fetal Pig Practical27 terms kimberlyregalado ch.12 assignment22 terms kimberlyregalado Verified questions

In a Dye Terminator reaction starting with 35,000 DNA duplex templates, how many total duplexes would be expected after 32 cycles of denaturation, annealing and elongation under ideal conditions? 2 answers QUESTION What happens to telomeres every time the cell divides? 15 answers QUESTION What are the three types of RNA involved in protein synthesis? 15 answers QUESTION How does RNA polymerase know where to start in transcription? 15 answers What is the characteristic of A double stranded DNA?Double-stranded DNA consists of two polynucleotide chains whose nitrogenous bases are connected by hydrogen bonds. Within this arrangement, each strand mirrors the other as a result of the anti-parallel orientation of the sugar-phosphate backbones, as well as the complementary nature of the A-T and C-G base pairing.
Which of the following is characteristic of a DNA double helix?The double helix of DNA has these features: It contains two polynucleotide strands wound around each other. The backbone of each consists of alternating deoxyribose and phosphate groups. The phosphate group bonded to the 5' carbon atom of one deoxyribose is covalently bonded to the 3' carbon of the next.
Which of the following best describes DNA double stranded structure?Answer and Explanation: The secondary structure of DNA is best described as A) double antiparallel helical strands. The structure of DNA is a double helix, two parallel strands that are joined in the middle and twist around each other.
Why is DNA double stranded quizlet?Because each nucleotide has a unique complimentary nucleotide, each strand contains all the information required to synthesize a new DNA molecule. -The double stranded structure also makes the molecule more stable.
