(a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The positions in the anticodon are primary determinants of their codon specificity in the case of glycine.

Introduction:

More than one codon and transfer RNA (tRNA) are attached to amino acids. The four codons of glycine are (5ʹ) GGU, GGU, GGA, and GGC. These codons are attached to some specific anti- codons.

(b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The anticodon-codon pairings that has wobble base pair.

Introduction:

Redundancy of genetic code allows the insertion of correct amino acids in the DNA sequence with regularity. In codons, only two nucleotides are needed to encode the correct amino acids and the sense of third codon have not changed, this property is termed as wobble. The wobble base- pairs are guanine- uracil, guanine-cytosine, -cytosine-guanine and adenine-uracil.

(c)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The anticodon-codon pairings in which all three positions exhibit strong Watson-Crick hydrogen bonding.

Introduction:

The Watson- Crick hydrogen bonding are seen between the two strands of DNA. These bondings are very weak bonding, but hydrogen bonding becomes strong if considered collectively.

2. For the flow of fluid over a flat membrane of length 10cm, determine the length-average mass transfer coefficient. The relevant properties of the system are u=0.01cm²/s, D=5 x 106 cm²/s, and v = 5.0 cm/s.
Background Freezing isn't the only challenge in cryopreservation - thawing can be just as difficult. A microwave oven seems like a nice solution, since it deposits energy quickly and microwaves are non-ionizing radiation (they do not cause DNA mutation). However, water absorbs microwaves more effectively than ice does, meaning that the portion of an organ that has already melted will get warmer at a higher rate than the remaining ice – the opposite of what we want! - The transmission of radiation through a weakly absorbing material such as ice or water can be modeled by Beer's law, which assumes that the rate of absorption at a depth x is proportional to the local radiation intensity I(x) times an absorption coefficient, which is often written as μ or a or just µ). Noting that absorption decreases the intensity, we can write a differential equation a Solving the differential equation with the boundary condition on the surface being gives the relationship For a standard microwave oven…
3. Dry air is inhaled at a rate of 10 liter/min through a trachea with a diameter of 20 mm and a length of 125 mm. The inner surface of the trachea is at a normal body temperature of 37°C and may be assumed to be saturated with water. a. Assuming steady, fully developed flow in the trachea, estimate the mass transfer convection coefficient. b. Estimate the daily water loss (liter/day) associated with evaporation in the trachea.
