Chapter 7, Problem 35P
You are participating in a study group preparing for an upcoming genetics exam, and one member of the group proposes that each of you draw the structure of two DNA nucleotides joined in a single strand. The figures are drawn and exchanged for correction. You receive the accompanying diagram to correct:
a. Identify and correct at least five things that are wrong in the depiction of each
b. What is wrong with the way the nucleotides are joined?
c. Draw this single-stranded segment correctly

For entertainment on a Friday night, a genetics professor proposed that his children diagram a polynucleotide strand of DNA. Having learned about DNA in preschool, his 5-year-old daughter was able to draw a polynucleotide strand, but she made a few mistakes. The daughter’s diagram (represented here) contained at least 10 mistakes. a. Make a list of all the mistakes in the structure of this DNA polynucleotide strand. b. Draw the correct structure for the polynucleotide strand.

- What are the qualities of an appropriate sequence in DNA chromatogram? Why?arrow_forwardWhen DNA is heated, it denatures; that is, the strands separate because hydrogen bonds are broken and some base-stacking and hydrophobic interactions are disrupted. The higher the temperature, the larger the number of hydrogen bonds that are broken. After reviewing DNA base pair structure, determine which of the following molecules will denature first as the temperature is raised.

(b) What can be said about the A and G compositions of its complementary strand?arrow_forwardIn 1950, Edwin Chargaff discovered that the ratios of A:T bases, and of G:C bases, in DNA is always 1:1. This discovery became known as Chargaff's rules and was important in helping determine the structure of DNA. The percentages of adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G) and thymine (T) bases in DNA from three species are shown below. Select the best answer for each of the questions.
