As in DNA replication, RNA is synthesized in the 5' â 3' direction (from the point of view of the growing RNA transcript). Only one of the two DNA strands is transcribed. This strand is called the template strand, because it provides the template for ordering the sequence of nucleotides in an RNA transcript.
The properties of the chemical elements are summarized on the periodic table, which organizes the elements by increasing atomic number into rows (periods) in which the columns (groups) share recurring (periodic) physical and chemical properties.
The nervous system has three general functions: a sensory function, an interpretative function and a motor function. 1  Sensory nerves gather information from inside the body and the outside environment. 2  The nerves then carry the information to central nervous system (CNS).
