If a nucleotide lacking a hydroxyl group at the 3' end were added to a pcr reaction, what would be the outcome?

1 answer:

6 0

The correct answer is b. no additional nucleotides would be added to a growing strand containing that nucleotide.

Nucleotides without a 3’hydroxy group are called dideoxynucleotides (ddNTD). Dideoxynucleotides are inhibitors of DNA polymerase because after being added in PCR reaction no further nucleotides can be added as no phosphodiester bond can be created (usually 3' hydroxyl group of the previous nucleotide attaches to 5' phosphate of the current nucleotide).

Compare the wind speeds of the edge of a hurricane on earth and the edge of the great red spot on jupiter what is your conclusio

Illusion [34]

Answer:

Jupiter is approximately 318 times bigger than the earth. So, it is expected that its hurricanes would be very massive as well.

Explanation:

A hurricane is a tropical cyclone, a storm with a very violent wind. It is labeled a cyclone because of its cyclic nature.

The Great Red Spot of Jupiter is a giant storm about twice as large as Earth, which in its southern hemisphere orbits the globe. This at least twice the speed of the most dangerous and most destructive hurricanes on Earth, which can produce wind speeds of approximately 280 km/h.

So it means that if there were to be a great red 'jupiterian' spot on earth it would blow the earth away.

Whats the defenition of heat ?

Morgarella [4.7K]

Heat in Physics is an energy that is in a process of transfer between a system and its surroundings other than the transfer of matter. In Thermodynamics, a science that deals with the study of heat and temperature and their relationship to energy and work, finer details of the process is unpredictable. Heat flows from a hotter to a colder body when there is a physical pathway. This pathway is suitable and can be direct such as radiation and conduction. It can also be indirect as in convective circulation.
