Associate Program Material DNA Worksheet Answer the following in at least 100 words: 1. Describe the structure of DNA. DNA molecules are composed of two strands that form a helical ascending spiral. They fit together like the opposing teeth of a zipper and are held together by weak interactions called hydrogen bonds. These two strands is a long string of subunits called nucleotides, each attached to the one immediately about it and the one immediately below it to form a long chain. Each

3. Termites A. Spirochetes play a fundamental role when it comes to the nutrition of termites. They use acetate produced by microbes as a major source of energy and of Carbon. Spirochetes N2 fixation also plays an important role in the nitrogen economy of termites. The N2 fixation of these spirochetes is significant for a lot of different environments B. Acetogenic spirochete: -Spirochetes that have been previously cultured, posses the ability to conserve their energy by the oxidation of H2 -The

The Importance of the Nephron in Kidneys All living organisms require a source of energy, usually in the form of food, to satisfy the cellular demands of the body and ultimately to sustain life. Thus, the nutrients that are consumed by organisms are broken down by various processes within organs, tissues, and cells, in order for important molecules, like minerals, vitamins, proteins, and carbohydrates, to be taken up and distributed around the body. The molecules not needed by the body or ends

Separation techniques Chromatography Chromatography is a separation technique used to separate the different components in a liquid mixture. It was introduced by a Russian Scientist Michael Tswett. Chromatography involves the sample being dissolved in a particular solvent called mobile phase. The mobile phase may be a gas or liquid. The mobile phase is then passed through another phase called stationary phase. The stationary phase may be a solid packed in a glass plate or a piece of chromatography

nutrients, waste, and ions. The cell wall acts like a skeleton by helping the plant maintain its shape and sturdiness. Without a cell wall plants would not be able to keep their shape. The cell wall is made out of cellulose. One of the most abundant macromolecules on earth is cellulose. Cellulose is a type of sugar that is not used for energy but rather for structure. It does not dissolve in water and only cows and other herbivores can digest cellulose with cellulose polymers. Without the
