General Biology DNA and RNA Deoxyribonucleic Acid and Ribonucleic Acid • DNA is deoxyribonucleic acid. It is located in the nuclei of cells‚ which make up the body. Consequently‚ DNA can be considered as one of the building blocks of the body. Where is DNA found? DNA‚ or deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is the hereditary material that lies within the nucleus of all cells in humans and other living organisms. Most of the DNA is placed within the nucleus and is called nuclear DNA. However‚

of us living things is the DNA. Every now and then‚ technology has been used in every aspect in our life. But we know that technology has its advantages and disadvantages. Recently it’s now being bounded with our DNA. DNA technology according to the book is a collection of molecular biology techniques which aims at manipulating the DNA of an organism for a useful end. It involves genetic engineering‚ cloning‚ DNA testing and other techniques and process which uses the DNA‚ genes‚ chromosomes and other

DNA is one of the nucleic acids information-containing molecules in the cell (ribonucleic acid‚ or RNA‚ is the other nuclei c acid). DNA if found in the nucleus of every human cell. The information is DNA: guides the cells (along with RNA) in making new proteins that determine all of our biological traits. DNA gets passed (copies) from one generation to the next.

warmer one. At a cold front‚ the cold air is behind the warm air. Because the cold air is denser‚ it pushes the warm air out of its way‚ forcing the warm air to rise into the atmosphere. * The slope of a typical cold front is 1:100 (vertical to horizontal). They would affect smaller area than a warm front. * Cold fronts tend to move faster than all other types of fronts. Cold fronts can move at up to 20mph faster than a warm front. They can move between 15 to 50 kilometers per hour

Aim To find out difference in the heat of combustion for different types of alcohols. Hypothesis The higher the number of carbon atoms in an alcohol is‚ the higher the energy for the heat of combustion. Alcohol is a homologous series‚ a series of organic compounds with similar formula and chemical properties‚ and increase in molecular size and mass. When the equations for combustion of these alcohols are listed in the order of increasing number of carbon atoms‚ Methanol 1 CH3OH(l) + 3/2 O2(g)

Biology 110 March 2‚ 2015 DNA Lab BACKGROUND In this laboratory experiment‚ students were introduced to DNA electrophoresis. DNA electrophoresis is an instrument that many forensic scientists use to get a DNA fingerprint as an evidence for crimes. Not only can it be used for forensic science‚ people can use this for paternity test‚ as well as look for evolutionary relationships among organisms. Agarose is used to make the gel that the DNA fragments are going into. Since DNA particles are negatively
