(a)
Interpretation:
Whether the statement "the polynucleotide is double stranded" pertaining to DNA, RNA or both should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
There are two types of nucleotide. They are DNA and RNA. Nucleic acids are composed of monomers called nucleotides.
Answer to Problem 17P
DNA
Explanation of Solution
DNA consists of two polynucleotide strands which wind into a right-handed double helix.
RNA is single stranded structure.

(b)
Interpretation:
Whether the statement "the polynucleotide may contain adenine" pertaining to DNA, RNA or both should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
There are two types of nucleotide. They are DNA and RNA. Nucleic acids are composed of monomers called nucleotides.
There are five common nitrogen-containing bases that are present in nucleic acids; cytosine, uracil, thymine, adenine and guanine.
Answer to Problem 17P
Both DNA and RNA
Explanation of Solution
There are five common nitrogen-containing bases that are present in nucleic acids; cytosine, uracil, thymine, adenine and guanineDNA contains the bases A, G, C, and T.
RNA contains the bases A, G, C, and U.

(c)
Interpretation:
Whether the statement "the polynucleotide may contain dGMP" pertaining to DNA, RNA or both should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
dGMP stands for Deoxyguanosine 5'-monophosphate. Deoxyribonucleotides are derived from 2-deoxyribose.
Answer to Problem 17P
DNA
Explanation of Solution
dGMP stands for Deoxyguanosine 5'-monophosphate. Deoxyribonucleotides are derived from 2-deoxyribose.DNA is a polymer of deoxyribonucleotides.
Therefore, dGMP present in DNA.

(d)
Interpretation:
Whether the statement "the polynucleotide is a polymer of ribonucleotides" pertaining to DNA, RNA or both should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
To make a Nucleotides; a phosphate group is added to the 5'-OH of a nucleoside.
Nucleotides are named by adding the term 5'-monophosphate to the name of the nucleoside from whichthey are derived.
Ribonucleotides are derived from ribose. Deoxyribonucleotides arederived from 2-deoxyribose.
Answer to Problem 17P
RNA
Explanation of Solution
Ribonucleotides are derived from ribose. Deoxyribonucleotides are derived from 2-deoxyribose. DNA is a polymer of deoxyribonucleotides.
RNA is a polymer of ribonucleotides.

Calculate the central, upper, and lower control limits for the c-chart and draw the chart precisely on the graph sheet provided (based on 3-sigma limits). Your chart should include a line for each of the control limits (UCL, CL, and LCL) and the points for each observation. Number the x-axis 1 through 25 and evenly space the numbering for the y-axis. Connect the points by drawing a line as well. Label each line drawn.

Choose the best explanation from the choices below. No. Since the instrument calculates 12 digits for all values, they should all be kept and not truncated. Doing so would eliminate significant information. No. Since the instrument calculates 5 decimal places for the standard, all of the values should be limited to the same number. The other decimal places are not significant for the blank and unknown sample. Yes. The way Saman made the standards was limited by the 250-mL volumetric flask. This glassware can report values to 2 decimal places, and this establishes our number of significant figures. Yes. Instrumental data…arrow_forward
