Similarities Nucleotides consist of pentose sugar, phosphate and base

Differences RNA: ribose (sugar) single stranded Made in the nucleus but can move outside it U, A, G, C bases

DNA: deoxyr...

Since Rsin(x+y)=Rsin(x)cos(y)+Rsin(y)cos(x), we can set Rcos(y)=4 (1) and Rsin(y)=3 (2) on comparison to the desired equation. Considering (2) divided by (1) we see that tan(y)=sin(y)/cos(y)=3/4 so y=atan...

Allopatric speciation occurs when populations of a species are separated by a physical barrier - this could be a river for animals that cannot swim, for example. Separation of the populations means that t...

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is a double helix composed of units called nucleotides. Each nucleotide is composed of a single deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group and one of four nitrogen bases. The 4 bases...

Lattice dissociation enthalpy is the enthalpy change when one mole of a gaseous ionic lattice dissociates into isolated gaseous ions. The process is endothermic because energy is required to overcome the ...
