During transcription, in what direction is (1) rna synthesized and (2) the dna template "read"? a. (1) 5'→3'; (2) 3'→5'b. (1) 5'→; 3' (2) 5'→; 3'c. (1) 3'→; 5'; (2) 3'→5'd. (1) 3'→5'; (2) 5'→3'

The correct answer is: a. (1) 5'→3'; (2) 3'→5'

In nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) 5’ end refers to phosphate group attached to the 5′ carbon of the ribose ring, while 3’ end refers to the ribose -OH substituent. Nucleic acids can only be synthesized in the 5′-to-3′ direction, which means that the DNA template is read in 3’—5’. Translation of the protein by the ribosome will also proceed in a 5′ to 3′ direction, which means that the mRNA template is 3’—5’.

the energy generated by an individual's metabolism is calculated in met (metabolic equivalent of task). the met is the ratio of the work metabolic rate to the resting metabolic rate. one met is illustrated as 1 kcal per kilogram per hour, and is probably equal to the energy cost of sitting quietly.

1 met is equal to 1.162 watt per kg

1 kg is equal to 1000 grams

as the person weighs 80000 gm, that is, 80 kg.

therefore, 80*1.162 = 92.96

thus, the person expends 92.96 watts of power while at rest.
