DNA is made up of sequence of nucleotides ( a phosphate, a pentose sugar and nitrogenous base). It is the sequence of bases on the DNA strand that codes for proteins. A sequence of three bases is called and ...

Let's consider a synapse between an axon and a dendrite. To illustrate that an action potential is transmitted from the axon to the dendrite, the last portion of the axon, coming in contact with the dendrite...

Differentiate by multiply by the power and then minus 1 from the power. Use the rule: y= ax^b -> dy/dx = abx^(b-1) dy/dx = 3 x 2x^(3-1) + -1 x 2x^(-1-1) + 0 dy/dx = 6x^2 - 2x^-2

It is essential that you read the question properly. By this I mean do not just glance over it and start your essay, you really need to get to grips with what the question is asking you to do. One technique ...

Using indices rules: y^a x y^b = y^(a+b), y^a / y^b = y^(a-b) Simplifying the numerator: b^6 x b^2 = b^(6+2) = b^8 Simplifying the whole fraction: b^8 / b^4 = b^(8-4) = b^4 Fully simplified answer is b^4.
