Coding Strand of DNA
When pointing to DNA transcription, the coding strand is found to be the DNA strand whose base sequence is indistinguishable from the base sequence of the RNA transcript developed. It is this strand that comprises the codons, while the non-coding strand …
Nucleotide
Both DNA and RNA are composed of organic molecules known as nucleotides. Hence, nucleotides are known as the basic building blocks of nucleic acids. These substances play a role in various processes such as cell signalling, enzyme reactions, metabolism, …
Structure of Cytosine
Cytosine is among the five primary nitrogenous bases of which DNA and RNA and are being used in storage and transportation of genetic makeup within a cell. Adenine, guanine, thymine as well as uracil are the remaining four nucleobases.

Chapter 28, Problem 28.24P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

When the higher G-C content is present in a nucleic acid, why the higher temperature is required for its thermal denaturation has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

The nucleic contains polynucleotides.  The nucleotides contains nitrogen bases, sugar molecule and phosphate ion.  The polynucleotides are formed by the phosphodiester linkages.  Nucleic acids are in double stranded chains which are held together by hydrogen bonds between the bases.
