A TWO child average will not solve overpopulation. With a two child average per woman (or per man), total population would go up by about two billion more â to nine billion! â before it even levels off! And it would not decline below 8 billion for another 200 years!
Nucleic acids. Nucleotides can link together by the formation of phosphate ester bonds. The hydroxyl group of a phosphate on one nucleotide undergoes a condensation reaction with the hydroxyl group on the carbohydrate ring of another nucleotide. The process may continue, building up nucleic acid molecules. These are polymers called polynucleotides. Formation of a polynucleotide. Nucleic acids are the 'building blocks' of DNA and RNA. The structure of DNA. DNA is formed from two polynucleotide chains.
On a single strand of DNA the nucleotides are held together by covalent bonding between the phosphate group bonded to the 5' end of the deoxyribose, which bonds to another deo â¦ xyribose molecule attached to the next nucleotide on the strand at the 3' end of the sugar. This is what holds together a single strand. When two strands of DNA that have exactly complementary base pairing (Adenine bonds with only Thymine, and Cytosine with Guanine) the base forms a hydrogen bond to the base on the opposite strand, only if the base pairing is complementary.
