Billy Bell What is the structure of nucleic acids? What is the structure and function of nucleic acids? Nucleic acids, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and RNA carry genetic information that is read into cells to make RNA and the proteins with which living organisms function. The known structure of the DNA double helix allows this information to be … Read more

Where does gene splicing occur? Splicing occurs in the nucleus before the RNA migrates into the cytoplasm. Once splicing is complete, the mature mRNA (containing the unbroken coding information) is transported to the cytoplasm where ribosomes translate the mRNA into a protein. The pre-mRNA transcript contains both introns and exons. When and where does binding … Read more
How is a voltage drop test performed? Use a digital multimeter to test the voltage drop. To take the test from the power side, you will need a DMM – a digital multimeter. You will need to access the fuel pump and battery connector. Take the multimeter and set it to a DC ammeter of … Read more
