Biology help please thank you!

2. An RNA transcript is synthesized in which direction? N terminus to C terminus C terminus to N terminus O 5' to 3 5' to 5' O3' to 5 3. Why was protein originally thought to be the genetic information storage molecule instead of DNA? There are more building blocks for protein than there are for DNA. Proteins have a wider variety of three-dimensional shapes than DNA. Proteins carry out a great range of cellular functions There are more building blocks for protein than there are for DNA, proteins have a wider variety of three-dimensional shapes than DNA, and proteins carry out a great range of cellular functions 4. The strands in a double helix of DNA are: O antiparallel complementary held together via hydrogen bonds 0 wound around each other with 10 base pairs per turn O antiparallel, complementary, held together via hydrogen bonds and wound around each other with 10 base pairs per turn 5. True or false: The same strand in a DNA double helix is used as the template strand for transcription of every gene in a given chromosome true false 6. An organism's genome is analyzed and found to contain 18% thymine, what percentage of that organism's DNA is cytosine? O 32% 18% 82% 64% 36%

Explanation / Answer

1)

Option (c)

2)

An RNA transcript is synthesized in 3’ to 5’ direction. Thus, the correct option is (e).

3)

Option (d)

4)

The strands in a double helix of DNA are: Option (e).

5)

True.

6)

The % of T = 18

So, % of A = 18

100-36 = 64

64/2 = 32

Therefore,

G = 32%

C = 32%

Thus, the % of C is 32 and correct option is (a).

6)

False

8)

Messenger RNA

9)

Option (e)

10)

Option (D).

11)

Release factor. (Option A)
