    1. How DNA replication takes place? DNA replication occurs within the interphase‚ In this phase two strands of DNA serve as templates for new DNA strands that are forming. As the DNA separates a replication bubble is formed‚ this is where two replication forks are formed that grow in two directions. DNA polymerase creates new strands as nucleotides are added individually to each strand. As each nucleotide pairs itself to the complimentary nucleotide on the opposite strand‚ new DNA molecules are formed

    can have it more than once. The differences between a virus and a bacterium are thus: * Bacteria are unicellular‚ Viruses have no cells. * Bacteria have DNA and RNA floating in cytoplasm‚ and a cell wall and membrane. Viruses have DNA or RNA enclosed in a protein coat. * Bacteria have Ribosomes‚ whereas viruses do not. * Bacterial infections are localised‚ yet viruses are systemic. As you can see‚ there are a load of differences between viruses and bacteria‚ however there

    Write a 350 to 700 word summary describing if the collection of DNA without consent unreasonably intrudes on an arrestees’ expectation of privacy.  How long can police keep your DNA on file after an arrest or conviction?  Can law enforcement use a person’s DNA to match against other crimes unrelated to the one they initially obtained it for?  Provide examples and or reasons. The collection of DNA without consent can unreasonably be seen as intruding on someone who has been not been arrested however

    catalytic RNA – which was instrumental for the RNA World Hypothesis ("Sidney Altman: The RNA World"). This hypothesis stated that early life started with RNA as they possess the ability to serve as a catalyst as well as contain genetic information. The RNA was able to spontaneously form under natural processes‚ which eventually replicated into all sorts of life. This paper will analyze the theoretical and experimental support for this hypothesis and comment on the plausibility of the RNA World Hypothesis

    DNA‚ or deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (where it is called nuclear DNA)‚ but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (where it is called mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA). The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A)‚ guanine (G)‚ cytosine (C)‚ and thymine (T). The order‚ or sequence‚ of

    The upper most strand is the (coding strand) DNA base sequence (triplet) of the gene codes for synthesis of a particular polypeptide chain. The second strand is the mRNA base sequence (template strand used for copying) codon of the transcribed mRNA. The process for going from the upper stand to the second strand is called Transcription and involves an enzyme called polymerase. The polymerase attaches to the promoter region (start codon) and reads the nucleotide base sequence until it gets to a termination

    The difference between bacteria‚ viruses‚ fungi and parasites are: Bacteria are single celled organisms that can rapidly multiple themselves every 10 minutes up to 10 times each bacterial cell‚ but they do not live or reproduce in a human cell. When threatened they will make a copy of their DNA to enable them to come back to life in the right conditions. They are able to survive in most extreme living conditions including with and without oxygen‚ there are various types of bacteria such as Cocci/Coccus

    Review 2: Text DNA is a very special and important molecule that is in our life‚ DNA is found in the nucleus. DNA stores the data needed to make poly peptides‚then data in a nucleic acid is transferred to messenger RNA‚ which escapes the nucleus into a protein. According to the DNA and protein article DNA is used in many things but DNA is used to make pol-peptides. They are another word for proteins. When a cell makes a protein the direction are resembled from the part of an DNA. DNA strand and transcript

    DNA Transcription The process of transcription is where a copy of a gene is made within DNA to use as RNA. It is located in the nucleus of eukaryotes and in the nucleoid of prokaryotes. DNA stores information encoded in a genetic code. The code consists of four letters and they are T (thymine)‚ G (guanine)‚ A (Adenine)‚ and C (cytosine). One gene codes for on protein. RNA is a molecule that copies information that is coded in another genetic code. This code also consists of the same four
