Mustard gas is a bifunctional alkylating agent possessing mutagenic and cytotoxic properties and forms crosslinked and two monoadducts with cellular DNA. This modified DNA inhibits processes like transcription and replication.
Explain how mustard gas behaves as a DNA adduct and how it affects DNA?
for gas chromotography, describe how and explain why column temperature affects resolution, retention and total analysis time
A common feature of DNA repair mechanisms is that the lesion (mutated base, adduct, etc) is removed including the sugar phosphate backbone. Give 2 examples of repair mechanism that do that Why is this a common theme? Ie, why does it make sense that all repair mechanisms reach this same point.
Consider a sample of phosphine gas (PH3), that behaves as an ideal gas. If the density of the gas is 4.18g/L at 17ºC. What is the pressure of the gas in torr? I am having trouble getting these formulas to click in my head to the point where I can invert them based on values given. I'm not sure how to solve for P in this case. I feel like I'm missing a step. Thanks.
Explain an entangled state vector and how it behaves with respect to: (a) inner products, and (b) being operated upon by an operator
How do DNA sequences change protein structure and what are some affects to the protein structures that can have an effect on the PTC receptor?
What gas behaves more ideally? CO2 or O2?
The formula for mustard gas used in chemical warfare is C4H8SC12 (159.09 g/mol). What is the percentage of hydrogen in the compound? O 44.57% 0 20.16% O 0.635% O 30.20% O 5.08%
I need all answers please 2) Mustard gas, used in chemical warfare in World War I, has been found to be an effective agent in the chemotherapy of Hodgkin's disease. It can be produced according to the following reaction: SCl (g)+ 2C H, (g)S(CH2CH2CI)2 (g) An evacuated 5.0 L flask at 20.0°C is filled with 0.258 mol SC12 and 0.592 mol C2H4. After equilibrium is established, 0.0349 mol mustard gas is present. (a) What is the partial pressure of each...
Explain how heritability affects the speed of evolution.
