QUESTION 11 Imagine you created a form of hemoglobin that did not respond to changes in pH - its 3D structure was fixed (unchanging). Which of the following would you predict about your modified hemoglobin? O A. it would have a constant affinity for oxygen, independent of partial pressure of oxygen O B. it would have a dynamic affinity for oxygen, responding to changes in partial pressure O C.it would be less saturated with oxygen at lower partial pressures of oxygen O D. it would be more saturated with oxygen at higher partial pressures of oxygen O E. it would be unable to bind oxygen
Nucleotides
It is an organic molecule made up of three basic components- a nitrogenous base, phosphate,and pentose sugar. The nucleotides are important for metabolic reactions andthe formation of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid).
Nucleic Acids
Nucleic acids are essential biomolecules present in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and viruses. They carry the genetic information for the synthesis of proteins and cellular replication. The nucleic acids are of two types: deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA). The structure of all proteins and ultimately every biomolecule and cellular component is a product of information encoded in the sequence of nucleic acids. Parts of a DNA molecule containing the information needed to synthesize a protein or an RNA are genes. Nucleic acids can store and transmit genetic information from one generation to the next, fundamental to any life form.
