bases in a gene is called a(n)
Answer:
mutation
Explanation:
A mutation is a change that occurs in copying a DNA sequence where the order of the proteins could be altered.
DNA and RNA are made of what monomers? ___________________________
42. What are the 3 components of a nucleotide? ________________________________________
43. What are the elements found in nucleic acids?___________________________________
44. What are the 3 polymers for nucleic acids.________________________________________
45. What are the 2 main functions for nucleic acids.________________________________________________________________________
Answer:
42. Nucleotides are composed of three subunit molecules: a nucleobase, a five-carbon sugar (ribose or deoxyribose), and a phosphate group consisting of one to three phosphates. The four nucleobases in DNA are guanine, adenine, cytosine and thymine; in RNA, uracil is used in place of thymine
Explanation:
43.Nucleic acids contain the same elements as proteins: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen; plus phosphorous (C, H, O, N, and P). Nucleic acids are very large macromolecules composed of repetitive units of the same building blocks, nucleotides, similar to a pearl necklace made of many pearls.
44.polymer of nucleic acid
33 terms. The two main types of nucleic acids are deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). Threose nucleic acid (TNA) is an artificial genetic polymer in which the natural five-carbon ribose sugar found in RNA has been replaced by an unnatural four-carbon threose sugar.
Being active at night and sleeping in burrows during the day is an adaptation of many animals living in the _____________
