Biology Questions

In DNA, adjacent nucleotides are linked by a phosphodiester bond: a covalent bond is formed between the 5' phosphate group of one nucleotide and the 3'-OH group of another.

Hence, in this manner, each strand of DNA has a "backbone" of phosphate-sugar-phosphate-sugar-phosphate.

Mitochondria is the Organelle in which Cellular Respiration Occur.

RNA acts as a messenger in between the DNA and ribosome as it transforms the genetic information from the DNA and as DNA is big and can't fit into the nuclear pores. 

Genes: The DNA is the genetic material. The DNA is made of several nucleotides. A nucleotide means, one nitrogenous base one sugar molecule and a phosphate molecule. These Nucleotides occur in sequences and several nucleotides form one gene ( a functional gene is called a cistron)

Mitochondria are known as 'Power House' of the cell because they produce energy in the form of ATP.

DNA is called the blueprint of life because it contains the instructions needed for an organism to grow, develop, survive and reproduce. DNA does this by controlling protein synthesis. Proteins do most of the work in cells, and are the basic unit of structure and function in the cells of organisms.
