DNA and RNA are nucleic acids that can store biological information based on the sequence of their nucleotide monomers. Figure 1 shows a short segment of each of the two types of nucleic acids. Which of the following best describes a structural difference between DNA and RNA?

A. DNA contains four types of nitrogenous bases, whereas RNA contains only two types of nitrogenous bases

B. The backbone of DNA contains deoxyibose, whereas the backbon e of RNA contains ribose.

C. A DNA molecule is composed of two parallel strands with the same 5'-3' directionality, whereas an RNA molecule is composed of only one strand

D. Phosphate groups provide rigidity to DNA, but RNA is flexible and contains no phosphate groups

B. The backbone of DNA contains deoxyibose, whereas the backbon e of RNA contains ribose.

Explanation:

A. DNA contains four types of nitrogenous bases, whereas RNA contains only two types of nitrogenous bases - this is false. Both contain four types of nitrogenous bases. DNA contains cytosine, guanine, adenosine and thymine, whereas RNA contains cytosine, guanine, adenine, and uracil.

B. The backbone of DNA contains deoxyibose, whereas the backbon e of RNA contains ribose. - this is true, each nucleotide in DNA contains a deoxyribose sugar, whereas each nucleotide in RNA contains a ribose sugar

C. A DNA molecule is composed of two parallel strands with the same 5'-3' directionality, whereas an RNA molecule is composed of only one strand - this is false. DNA is composed of 2 strands, and RNA is composed of one, but the DNA strands run in an anti-parallel configuration (one runs 5'-3', the other runs 3'-5')

D. Phosphate groups provide rigidity to DNA, but RNA is flexible and contains no phosphate groups - this is false, both DNA and RNA nucleotides contain phosphate groups

Schools are being forced to embrace computers. unlike their "digital immigrant" teachers, these students are "digital natives", born into a world where technology is an integral part of everyday life. almost every student has access to a multitude of computers, laptops and tablet devices. it would be crazy to assume an assignment would notbe written on computer in this day and age.many schools now have a 1-to-1 computer policy, and many districts and states in the united states have mandated computers or ipads across the state for every student, including los angeles, the second largest school district in the country.but the thing is, when they tried it in la, it wasn't the success they hoped for. that's because the tablets weren't used as much as they expected. rather, it appeared there was a gap between the digital native's love of technology and their use of it in the classroom.this conflicted relationship with computers is also underscored by much of the literature on education. it is also highlighted in professional development and conferences such as edutech.
