Environmental health and hazards

An organism's environment is the environment in which it lives and has an impact on its well-being. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines environmental health as "those aspects of public health, such as quality of life, that are influenced by physical, chemical, biological, social, and psychosocial components in the environment." Environmental health is concerned with both natural and man-made settings in order to enhance public health. Environmental science, occupational medicine, toxicology, and epidemiology are the key subdisciplines of environmental health.

DNA and RNA are different because: DNA is made of 4 bases, while RNA is made of 5 bases. DNA is double stranded, while RNA is triple strand. الأنتنامى DNA uses Uracil (U), while RNA uses Thymine (T) DNA is found only in the nucleus, while RNA can travel anywhere in the cell.
All the following statements about DNA are true, EXCEPT: O DNA is a double-helix, consisting of a sugar-phosphate backbone. O DNA is made up on nucleotides, which consist of one sugar, one phosphate, and one base. O DNA consists of 4 bases - adenine, uracil, cytosine, and guanine. The two main functions of DNA are to replicate itself and to create proteins (by providing the template for protein synthesis). O The sugar in DNA is deoxyribose.
The following are components of DNA, except for: nitrogen-containing base phosphate group deoxyribose sugar all of the above none of above
Which of the following statements BEST explains the relationship between the parts of genetic materials? Each DNA molecule contains many chromosomes. Each chromosome contains RNA molecules. Each DNA molecule contains genes Each gene contains many DNA molecules.
DNA and RNA are both nucleic acids, but their structures and functions differ. Which of the following options correctly describes the structures and functions of DNA and RNA? a RNA is made from DNA and is used in transcription, while DNA is used in translation. b DNA is a double helix that is used to make proteins, while RNA is single-stranded and used to make lipids. c In DNA, adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine join together and carry all of the genetic information. RNA is made from adenine, uracil, cytosine, and guanine and is used to make proteins. d DNA is a double helix that carries all of the genetic information of an organism, while RNA is single-stranded and carries only half of the genetic information.
Which of the following are true statements about DNA and RNA? Select all that apply. RNA contains the base uracil and the sugar ribose RNA contains the base thymine and the sugar deoyribose The monomer (repeating subunit) of both DNA and RNA is a nucleotide (a sugar, a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base) RNA has two strands, while DNA is single stranded DNA has two strands, while RNA is single stranded
Help me please
DNA molecules can perform their function in replication and transcription as long as the 2 strands remain intact and not separated.
Which of the following is a way to distinguish between DNA and RNA? The number of carbon atoms in the ribose of DNA is 5; it is only 4 in the ribose of RNA. The nitrogenous bases of RNA form hydrogen bonds with one another, but those of DNA do not. There is a -OH group on the 2' carbon of the RNA sugar but not on the 2' carbon of the DNA sugar.
List four differences between DNA and RNA.
Why is DNA not RNA the storage for genetic information? O DNA is double stranded in its structure while RNA is usually single stranded. O DNA is helical in structure while RNA is usually linear. O DNA has the pyrimidine base thymine while RNA has uracil instead. O None of the above. DNA has no 2'-hydroxyl group while RNA contains 2'-hydroxyl group.
Which of the following is true of DNA but not RNA? It can polymerize by adding monomers onto either the 5' or the 3' end. It forms intermolecular base pairs, forming stable double-stranded structures. Release of PPi from the monomer provides the energy for polymerization. It has secondary structure.
