Chapter 6, Problem 1.1CYU
Summary Introduction
Introduction: Proteins are made up of the amino acids. Messenger-ribonucleic acid (mRNA) is converted into protein through the process of translation. Proteins form the structure and support the cells. They are coded by genes and form the basis of all living organisms. Some proteins that catalyze the biological reactions are as called enzymes that

(LO 2.8) Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of DNA?
DNA has a hydrogen, not a hydroxyl, functional group on the 2' carbon of the
ribose.
The two molecules of DNA in a double helix are arranged in an antiparallel
orientation
Each nucleotide along the backbone of one molecule of DNA is held to the next
nucleotide in the same polymer by covalent bonds.
The purines (A and G) form complementary base pairs with each other with three
hydrogen bonds, and the pyrimidines (C and T) also form complementary base pairs
with each other.
Two molecules of DNA form a double helix with hydrogen bonds holding the two
molecules to each other.
