What will happen if fal in nucleic acid?

I deduce from your horribly spelled and cryptic message that you mean to ask what will happen if you were to fall into a vat of nucleic acid. Well, nucleic acid is not strongly acidic, despite the suggestion in the name. It is in fact very weakly acidic due to various reasons not to be discussed here for simplicity's sake, and falling into a vat of it would not harm you whatsoever.


What do the letters DNA stand for?

Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) - National Human Genome Research Institute Deoxyribose is a sugar with five carbons. Nucleic comes from the fact that the DNA is inside of the nucleus. Acid refers to the fact that it is a phosphoric acid. The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C), and thymine (T).


What is the chemical component of genes?

Chemical Composition of geneWhen Fedrisch Meischer discovered nucleic acids its importance in heredity was not established. Now it is an established fact that nucleic acid is principal component of chromosomes. There are two types of Nucleic acids. They are Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and Ribonucleic acid (RNA). DNA is the Nucleic acid found in the structure of chromosome. DNA content of diploid somatic cell is definite. In haploid gametes DNA content is reduced to half. Thus, it is definitely concluded that genetic material or hereditary material is DNA. The function of DNA is to store genetic information, to transmit it and to make use of it. Proteins are polymers of amino acids. Similarly nucleic acids are polymers of nucleotides. The structure formed by union of many similar units is called a polymer. There are three constituents of each nucleotides: 1. pentose sugar 2 phosphoric acid as phosphate 3. Nitrogen base.Deoxyribose is the pentose sugar in DNA. There are two types of nitrogen bases.1.Purine such as Adenine (A) and Guanine (G)2. Pyrimidines such as Thymine (T) and Cytosine (C)Besides this a bigger molecule called nucleoside is formed when sugar molecules join with nitrogen base. A still bigger molecule called nucleotide is formed when Nucleoside unites with phosphate. A polynucleotide chain is formed when sugar and phosphate units of different nucleotides join with each other


Why is evolution theory not fact?

Evolution is a scientific theory that is supported by overwhelming evidence from various fields such as paleontology, genetics, and microbiology. The term "theory" in science does not mean a guess, but rather a well-substantiated explanation based on evidence. While evolution is widely accepted among scientists, it is not considered a fact in the same way as established scientific laws because theories are subject to modification based on new evidence.


Where is DNA found in the cell?

The nucleus, or center, DNA or Dioxyribonucleic acid. The DNA is in the chrimosomes in the middle of the cell.

What is the difference between deoxyribose nucleic acid and deoxypentose nucleic acid?

There is no difference between deoxyribose nucleic acid and deoxypentose nucleic acid; in fact, both terms refer to the same molecule: DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid). DNA is made up of a sugar-phosphate backbone containing deoxyribose sugar units, which are the pentose sugars involved in forming the nucleic acid polymer.

What genetic material to all living bacteria contain?

It is the same as human, ie.DNA. In fact, bacteria are the ancestors of all the species,and so they named as prokaryotes. They trascribe RNA and synthesise proteins like us.

Do nucleic acids form much of the cell membrane?

No, in fact most of the cell membrane consist of phospholipids and proteins. Integral proteins are mostly used for transport and other functions and the phospholipids which have a polar phosphate head and nonpolar lipid (fat) tails.

What are the functions of each of the four groups of molecules?

Four Major Categories of Organic MoleculesThe four major categories of organic molecules are lipids, nucleic acids, proteins and carbohydrates. The term "organic" refers to the fact that these molecules are present in or made by living organisms. These types of molecules also comprise more than one element, typically carbon-hydrogen bonds.
