What what is a monomer of nucleotide?
A nucleotide is not a polymer, so it has no monomers.
What is the probability of any nucleotide being present at any position in a molecule of DNA?
1/4
Substances used to increase the rate of mutations?
pretty much any substance that is radioactive. just like in Fallout 3
Phosphate groups can be esterified at any hydroxyl group on a pentose nucleotide What position is the most common?
5'
Why is it important for the nucleotide bases to stay in the same position?
It is important for nucleotide bases to stay in the same position because they provide the genetic information necessary for the functioning of an organism. The arrangement of the bases in the DNA molecule determines the sequence of amino acids in proteins, which play crucial roles in cellular processes. Any change in the position of the nucleotide bases can lead to disruptions in these processes, potentially causing genetic disorders or functional abnormalities.
Is there any isotopes in phosphorus?
Yes, the most stable isotopes are 31P, 32P, and 33P. 31P is stable with 16 neutrons. 32P has a half-life of 14.28 days with 17 neutrons. 33P has a half-life of 25.3 days with 18 neutrons.
Which molecule is the subunit of DNA that links together to form strands of DNA?
a nucleotide
What what is a monomer of nucleotide?
A nucleotide is not a polymer, so it has no monomers.
What is the probability of any nucleotide being present at any position in a molecule of DNA?

In any double chain of DNA the nucleotide adenine A matches up with which nucleotide?
DNA adenine pairs with Thymine

Smallest bit of genetic information?
A gene, because any smaller and it would just be nucleotides.
What breed of cow is used to make Big Mac's?
Any breed can be used to make ground beef which is used "to make" Big Mac's.
Is 32 the gcf of what 2 numbers?
Take any two coprime number, p and q. Coprime means that p and q do not share any common factor (other than 1). Then, 32p and 32q have a GCF of 32.

What makes up nucleotide?
Nucleotides are monomeric units of nucleic acids. They themselves contain three types of molecules. They contain one pentose sugar, at least one phosphate group and a nitrogen base. If the nucleotide is a monomeric unit of DNA, then it is systematically referred as deoxynuclotide. It can have any of the nitrogen base from adenine, guanine, thymine or cytosine. The pentose sugar present is deoxyriobose. In the nucleotide that are monomeric unit of RNA, thymine is replaced by another nitrogen base uracil. the petose sugar present is ribose. Nucletides can have upto three phosphate groups. Depending on number of phosphate groups present, it is nucleotide monophosphate (NMP), nucleotide diphosphate (NDP) and nucleotide triphophate (NTP).
