What else can I help you with?
Where is uracil found?
Uracil naturally occurs in RNA. It replaces thymine which is in DNA. So in RNA U pairs with A, and G pairs with C. In DNA T pairs with A, and G pairs with C.
Which fragment of DNA is the longest or biggest?
The fragment of the DNA that is the longest is the one that is the slowest to get to the bottom of the gel in the body. This is because longer DNA are simply the largest base pairs that are digested in the restriction enzymes which make them slower then the shorter ones.
Which of the following has the largest genome and the fewest genes per million base pairs?
The largest genome typically belongs to amoebas, like Amoeba dubia, which can have billions of base pairs. Organisms with large genomes tend to have fewer genes per million base pairs due to the presence of repetitive and non-coding DNA sequences that lower the gene density.
What is the average gene length in a typical human genome?
The average gene length in a typical human genome is about 27,000 base pairs.
How large can a gene potentially be in terms of size?
Genes can vary in size, but the largest known gene in humans is the dystrophin gene, which is about 2.4 million base pairs long.
What are the ordered base pairs along a gene called?
Guanine and Cytosine, and Thymine and Adenine.
What is a series of base pairs that controls what substances the cell makes?
\gene

What is a promoter and where is it found?
A promoter is a specific DNA sequence located upstream of a gene that regulates the initiation of transcription. It serves as a binding site for RNA polymerase and transcription factors, facilitating the expression of the associated gene. Promoters are typically found in the regions of DNA adjacent to the genes they control, often within a few hundred base pairs upstream of the transcription start site.

The average gene length in a typical human genome is about 27,000 base pairs.
What does it means to have homologous chromosomes?
the gene's alleles are found in matched chromosome pairs
How large can a gene potentially be in terms of size?
Genes can vary in size, but the largest known gene in humans is the dystrophin gene, which is about 2.4 million base pairs long.
Why is the order of the base pairs along a gene important?
The base pairs are ordered such that they spell out the order in which amino acids will be placed to build a protein. When they are in the wrong order, either the wrong amino acid is made, or sometime it will create a shortened protein which may or may not perform its intended function.
How many nucleotides are typically found in a gene?
A gene typically contains thousands to millions of nucleotides.
What is the maximum size that a gene can be in a eukaryote?
The maximum size of a gene in eukaryotes can vary, but it is typically around 2 million base pairs in length. However, some genes can be much longer due to alternative splicing and other factors.
