Heinz Shuster collected the following data on the base composition of ribgrass mosaic virus (H. Shuster, in The Nucleic Acids: Chemistry andBiology, vol. 3, E. Chargaff and J. N. Davidson, Eds. New York: Academic Press, 1955). On the basis of this information, is the hereditary information of the ribgrass mosaic virus RNA or DNA? Is it likely to be single stranded or double stranded?

- In bacteriophages and bacteria, the DNA is almost always organized into circular (closed loops) chromosomes. Phage l is an exception, maintaining its DNA in a linear chromosome within the viral particle. However, as soon as this DNA is injected into a host cell, it circularizes before replication begins. What advantage exists in replicating circular DNA molecules compared to linear molecules, characteristic of eukaryotic chromosomes?arrow_forward11:29 Protein 6-10092015113530.pdf https:api.schoology.comv1attachment169963838...

- To test patients for COVID19, lab workers will first convert all the RNA molecules extracted from a nasal swab to a double-stranded DNA copy (dsDNA). If the virus is present, its genomic sequence should be in some of the new dsDNA molecules. Part 1) A region of COVID genomic DNA sequence is shown below. Following convention, only the top strand is shown. Copy/paste the sequence into the text box and create the second strand. Be sure to label its ends.
