It is common to use ddNTPs (dideoxynucleoside triphosphates) for sequencing DNA because, when incorporated into a growing DNA po

lymer, the ddNTP acts as a chain terminator, allowing the researcher an opportunity to determine the last-added base to a given chain. From your knowledge of nucleotide structure and DNA synthesis, what is the most likely attribute of ddNTPs for DNA sequencing?
A. The ddNTPs lack a 5′ carbon.

B. The ddNTPs lack a 3′ hydroxyl group.

C. The ddNTPs lack a nitrogenous base.

D. The ddNTPs lack the sugar component.

Answer:

B. The ddNTPs lack a 3′ hydroxyl group.

Explanation:

Dideoxynucleotides is a family of inhibitors of the DNA polymerase, its official name is 2',3' dideoxynucleotides but they are commonly called ddNTPs. One of the main characteristics of this compound is the absence of the 3'-hydroxyl group in the deoxyribose, due to the absence of this group, it is impossible to form a phosphodiester bond between nucleotides and the DNA synthesis is stopped.

Sauron [17]
A pedigree shows the genotypes of the family members 
in autosomal recessive disorders, the diseased genes are inherited from the parents. For the person to get the disease both diseased genes should be there in the genotype as its a recessive disorder.
the dominant gene - H
   recessive gene    - h
for a person to get a disease, genotype should be hh, as its autosomal recessive. If the person is normal he/ she could have the genotype HH or could be Hh and thats called a carrier.
the offspring will receive one gene from the mother and one from the father

Describe the major differences in acute versus passive range of motion (rom) when distinguishing between an articular and nonart
Ierofanga [76]
The question should be about active vs passive range of motion.

In the active range of motion, the test is done by asking the patient to move their body themselves. In this case, the patient should use their muscle to move their body. If there is a restriction in this examination, it could be caused by the muscles or the joints, or the nervous system that used to contract the muscle.
In the passive range of motion, the test is done by the examiner moving the patient body. Since no muscle used, the test shouldn't be influenced much by the muscle. Then, if there is an articular joint issue, the restriction would be found in both passive and active ROM, but the nonarticular joint issue might only cause abnormality in the active ROM.

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The experimenter hypothesized that fertilizer would make the plants grow taller. The results show that, on average, plants with fertilizer grew 0.7 cm taller over the course of 12 days. This small amount of height increase could be attributed to the fertilizer or may be caused by natural differences in the plants.

Answer:

The only possible answer is D, which states that the population will reach 5000 and after that the growth will stabilise (exactly what would hapen in a logistic growth).

Reflection questions need to be answered using complete sentences. Some questions may require a longer explanation in paragraph
natka813 [3]
1) Interphase is the longest phase and most of the cells are present in that very stage !!


2) Interphase is the longest phase and Anaphase is the shortest phase !! Interphase is the longest phase as in this phase the cells prepare themselves for dividing and it takes most of the time for gathering energy for division ; in this phase DNA also replicate !!


3)
Interphase: DNA replicates;

Prophase: Nuclear membrane starts disappearing and Centrioles go on opposite poles !! DNA condense to form Chromosome.

Metaphase: Chromosome attach to spindle fibre and starts to move to equitorial plate.

Anaphase: Centromere divide and half the chromatid goes on either pole

Telophase: Nuclear membrane starts to reassemble; Chrmosome goes to normal uncoiled state ; Other organelles starts appearing

Cytokinesis: Cell furrow forms and cell divides into two half.


4) In dividing cell nucleus membrane is absent while in non dividing cell the membrane is intact


5) Tip of the onion root is meristamatic cell which divides but if it is permanent cell ; there would be no division !!
