The pulse oximeter is another common piece of medical measuring equipment, designed to measure pulse rate and oxygen saturations by pegging onto a patient's finger. They are used on almost every hospital patient at least daily, and so are highly prone to transmitting. .
Why is DNA replication important? A: DNA replication is important because it creates a second copy of DNA that must go into one of the two daughter cells when a cell divides. Without replication, each cell lacks enough genetic material to provide instructions for creating proteins essential for bodily function.
thymine has a methyl group which is not found in uracil. Having a methyl group means it is more stable. That is why thymine is more stable that uracil. DNA is more stable than RNA because DNA has deoxyribose sugar and RNA has ribose sugar. So DNA has thymine base and RNA has uracil. Also, all genetic info is stored in DNA, so DNA has to be stable and 'long-lived' to stored the information.
