Nucleotides Nucleotides are the monomers, building blocks, of nucleic acids (DNA and RNA). Each nucleotide includes three components: a phosphate, a sugar, and a nitrogenous base.
A minimum of 20 hours per week is common although the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics' Economic News Release describes part-time employees as individuals working one to 34 hours per week. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), the Federal wage and hour law, doesn't define full- or part-time employment.
The normal FLSA work period is the work week -- 7 consecutive days -- and the normal FLSA overtime threshold is 40 hours per work week. Some jobs may be governed by a different FLSA overtime threshold. These will be addressed specifically, below.
