The phosphodiester bonds of the polynucleotide backbone in DNA would be broken.

The phosphate of one nucleotide is covalently bound to the sugar of the next nucleotide in DNA molecule (or hydroxyl groups in phosphoric acid react with hydroxyl groups on 3' carbon atom of one sugar molecule (deoxyribose) and the 5' carbon atom of another sugar molecule (deoxyribose) to form two ester bonds).

Hydrolysis of phosphodiester bonds is catalyzed by the action of enzymes phosphodiesterases.

Match the creature to its distribution pattern.

Answer:

The correct match would be:

  • Swallow - migration
  • Tiger - sparse distribution—scarce
  • Devil’s Hole pupfish - local endemic
  • Humpback whale - sparse distribution—widely dispersed

Swallows are small migratory birds belonging to the family Hirundinidae found all around the world. Migrating swallows can cover around 200 miles in a day.

Tiger has become endangered species due to excessive hunting and habitat loss. It is estimated that only 3800 tigers are left in the wild.

Devil’s Hole pupfish is a species of a fish only found in Devils Hole which is a  geothermal aquifer-fed pool located in Ash Meadows National Wildlife Refuge  in Nevada city of the United States

The humpback whale or <em>Megaptera novaeangliae</em> is a species of baleen whale which is widely distributed in all major oceans including Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian oceans.

The bony projection that occurs bilaterally on the posterior aspect at mid-thorax is the ________ of the scapula.
satela [25.4K]
The inferior angle of the scapula is the bony projection that occurs bilaterally on the posterior aspect at the mid-thorax.

The inferior angle of the scapula is formed by the unification of the medial and lateral borders of the scapula. It is thick and rough and its posterior or dorsal part serves as an attachment to the Teres major muscle, to which the latissimus dorsi glides over.
