Question
Chapter 1, Problem 30P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Whether the stability of double helix in phosphate buffer and pure water with appropriate reasoning is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
Buffer has both the negatively as well as positively charged species. It is the solution that contains either a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. It resists any change in the values of

DNA
True or false
A long chain polymer in which the internucleotide linkages are of the diester type between C-3’ and C-5’
Hydrolyzed by weak alkali (pH 9 to 100°C)
Different from RNA since in the latter the internucleotide linkages are between C-2’ and C-5
Usually present in tissues as a nucleoprotein and cannot be separated from its protein component
DNA: Using the two deoxynucleotides you chose, draw the two monomers bound together into a compound, and label a phosphodiester bond.
Calculating human genome
If 1.5 percent of the human genome consists of protein-coding sequences, and the entire genome has 3.2x10^9, how many codons are there in the human genome? Remember that a codon is three nucleotides in length.
