(b)
Interpretation:
For each nucleotide, it is to be stated whether it can be part of RNA or DNA.
Concept introduction:
In both RNA and DNA, the backbone of a single strand consists of alternating sugar and phosphate group. In RNA, the sugar group is ribose whereas in DNA, it is deoxyribose. In the ribose sugar, the
(c)
Interpretation:
The nitrogenous base in each of the given nucleotides is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
Nucleotides are distinguished from one another by identifying the nitrogenous bases attached to the sugar group. In both RNA and DNA, it is the specific sequence of the nitrogenous bases that determines the genetic information that is stored or carried. There are four types of five nitrogenous bases that could be present in RNA and DNA. Uracil, guanine, adenine, cytosine, thymine are the nitrogenous bases present in RNA and DNA. In a nucleotide, the

- Add curved arrows to show how the first resonance structure can be converted into the second.arrow_forwardProblem (#2.) For each ion below, draw all reasonable resonance structures (linked by resonance arrows “↔”). Include curved arrows that indicate the movement of electrons between each resonance structure. Assign non-zero formal charges to each atom for each resonance structure. (a.) NO3– (nitrate) (b.) CH3COO– (acetate) (c.) N3– (azide) (d.) NCO– (isocyanate) Problem (#3.) For each ion in question 2, draw a resonance hybrid, assigning non-zero formal and/or partial charges (δ+, δ–) as needed. Problem (#4.) For each skeletal structure below, satisfy the valences (or octets) of all of the atoms by filling in double and triple bonds as well as unshared electron pairs. Assign non-zero formal charges and show the overall charge if the structure is an ion. See photo attached for Problem number 4. Problem (#5.) For each structure in question 4, draw a resonance hybrid (if it has one) and assign non-zero formal and/or partial charges as needed.arrow_forwardPlease answer a) and b)arrow_forward
- This image represents the structure of a protein segment with amino acid side chains pointing off the polymer backbone. As we will learn soon, protein structure is formed from, and stablized by, different non-covalent interactions between the various functional groups found as side chains of the amino acids that make up the protein. For each of the five examples 1) - 5) below, identify the bond highlighted in yellow that forms between the two side chain functional groups from the list provided on the right. Note: Not all answers in the list on the right will be used. 3) 1) CH CO.. HO-CH 4. CH CH CH 2) HjC HC CH 5)arrow_forwardBelow are two sets of resonance structures.
