AGREEMENT BETWEEN NOUN AND ITS QUANTIFIER

Quantifiers are the words that represent the quantity or number of the nouns. Some nouns are numbered (like people), whereas some nouns are measured (like sugar). According to the rule, there should be an agreement between noun and its quantifier. 

Examples:
(i)     A large amount/number of people were there.
(ii)   One should not eat much/manysugar.

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)

Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) DNA is heredity material. It controls the properties and potential activities of a cell. Location in cell DNA occurs in chromosomes, in the nuclei of the cells and in much lesser amounts in mitochondria and chloroplast. Chemical composition of DNA DNA is made of four kinds of  nucleotides; d-adenosine monophosphate (d-AMP) d-guanosine monophosphate (d-GMP) d-cytidine monophosphate (d-CMP) d-thymidine monophosphate (d-TMP) These nucleotides are united with one another through phosphodiester linkages in a specific sequence to form long chains. Two nucleotides join to form  dinucleotide  e.g nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide  (NAD) which is important coenzyme in several oxidation-reduction reactions in the cell. Three nucleotides join to form  trinucleotide . Ratio of Bases in DNA In 1951,  Erwin Chargaff  provided data about the ratios of different bases present in DNA. This data suggested that ade...

Comparing MOLE OR AVOGADRO'S NUMBER

MOLE  The relative atomic mass of an element, the relative molecular mass of a molecule, the relative formula mass of an ionic substance or ionic mass of ionic specie when expressed in grams is called gram mole or simply mole. One mole of a substance is the amount in grams which contains 6.02×10 23  particles of that substance. It is denoted by “n”. It is abbreviated as “mol”. It is the  basic SI unit of measuring the quantity of substance. Example: (i)  Element                                Na       =          23g      = 1mole (ii) Molecular compound        H 2 O     =          18g      = 1mole (iii) Ionic compound         ...
