DNA‚ as we all know‚ is esteemed with the title of ‘Master Molecule ’. The three letters of DNA denotes of deoxyribonucleic acid .Now the thing that we ponder on is why DNA is so important to us. Why are the researchers & scientist persistently working on DNA? Why it is so important to know the tiniest details of DNA structure and function.?The simplest answer for “Why Is DNA Important?” is that DNA is the prerequisite for life’s inception. Firstly‚ it transfers hereditary information from

I half-filled one well of a 24-well plate with 6M HCl and half-filled a second well of the 24-well plate with 6 M NaOH. I then sucked up these chemicals into their labeled pipets. I then set aside for later 2. I performed the following

Characteristics and Properties of Amino Acids Introduction: Each amino acid has at least one amine and one acid functional group as the name implies. The different properties result from variations in the structures of different R groups. The R group is often referred to as the amino acid side chain. Amino acids have special common names‚ however‚ a three letter abbreviation for the name is used most of the time. A second abbreviation ‚ single letter‚ is used in long protein structures.Consult

Chemical Prperties of Metals Most metals are chemically reactive‚ reacting with oxygen in the air to form oxides over changing timescales (for example iron rusts over years and potassium burns in seconds). The alkali metals react quickest followed by the alkaline earth metals‚ found in the leftmost two groups of the periodic table. Examples: 4Na + O2 → 2Na2O (sodium oxide) 2Ca + O2 → 2CaO (calcium oxide) 4Al + 3O2 → 2Al2O3 (aluminium oxide) The transition metals take much longer to

Etymology The name atom comes from the Greek ἄτομος (atomos‚ "indivisible") from ἀ- (a-‚ "not") and τέμνω (temnō‚ "I cut")‚[3] which means uncuttable‚ or indivisible‚ something that cannot be divided further.[4] The concept of an atom as an indivisible component of matter was first proposed by early Indian and Greek philosophers. In the 18th and 19th centuries‚ chemists provided a physical basis for this idea by showing that certain substances could not be further broken down by chemical methods‚ and they

he atom is the basic unit of chemical matter. The atom is the smallest unit that defines the chemical elements and their isotopes. Everything that is solid‚ liquid‚ or gas is made up of atoms. Everything that can be seen and touched is made up of atoms. Atoms are tiny; their size is typically measured in picometers (trillionths of a meter). A single strand of human hair is about one million carbon atoms wide.[1] Every atom is composed of a nucleus made of protons and neutrons (hydrogen-1 has no

Kinetic theory of matter is that universe is made up of matter and energy. Matter is made up of atoms and molecules. Atoms and molecules are always in motion because energy. Energy forces them to contact into each other or vibrate back and forth. When this happens molecules and atoms creates a form of energy called (heat) thermal energy‚ which is present in all matter. (“Matter”2009) Molecules interact‚ attracting each other through a force of cohesion. There five phases of matter. Liquid
