Projectile Motion

Science > Physics > Projectile Motion > Analytical Treatment of Projectile Motion When a body is thrown making an acute angle with the horizontal, the body is said to perform the projectile motion. The path of the body performing projectile motion is called a trajectory. Example: A ball thrown by a fielder to the wicketkeeper, […]

M’Naghten Rules (Defence of Insanity)

There are a variety of criminal defense strategies that a lawyer may utilize when defending a client in a criminal case. Courts will determine legal insanity. In this article, we shall study one of the strategies called The M’Naghten Rules. Insanity is a mental defect or disease that makes it impossible for a person to know what […]

Newton’s Equations of Motion

Science > Physics > Motion in a Straight Line > Newton’s Equations of Motion In this article, we shall study to solve problems based on Newton’s equations of motion. First Equation of Motion: Let u =  initial velocity of a body, v =   final velocity of the body t = time in which the change in velocity takes […]

Replication of DNA

The process in which a DNA molecule produces exact copy or replica of itself is known as replication of DNA. In eukaryotes, replication of DNA takes place inside the nucleus. In DNA replication, the double helix (parent strand) unzips forming two separate strands called templates. These templates provide the base sequences used to synthesize new DNA (daughter) strands. […]

Types of Nongenetic RNA

There are three types of non-genetic RNA. They are mRNA, rRNA, and tRNA. These RNAs are produced on the DNA template by the process called transcription. mRNA or Messenger RNA: The mRNA molecule is always simple and straight without any fold and is transcribed from one strand of DNA. It constitutes 3 to 5 % […]

Structure of RNA

In this article, we shall study the difference between DNA and RNA, and also the structure of RNA. Differences between RNA molecules and DNA molecule: RNA contains ribose sugar units while DNA contains deoxyribose sugar unit. RNA contains the base uracil while DNA contains thymine. RNA is single-stranded, except in some viruses while DNA is […]

Structure and Packaging of DNA

In this article, we shall study the structure of DNA. Each cell in a particular living organism contains the exact same DNA. The size of the DNA polymer is directly related to the complexity of the organism; more complex organisms tend to have larger molecules of DNA, while less complex organisms have smaller DNA.   For e.g. […]
