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 periodic table is a tabular arrangement of the chemical elements, ordered by their atomic number (number of protons in the nucleus), electron configurations, and recurring chemical properties. The table also shows four rectangular blocks: s-, p-d- and f-block.he periodic table is a tabular arrangement of the chemical elements, ordered by their atomic number (number of protons in the nucleus), electron configurations, and recurring chemical properties.
