The tangent plane at the point x=a, y=b is the plane that contains all the tangent vectors (at the point) of curves on the surface that pass through the point (a,b,f(a,b)). Another way to define it is to say that this is the plane through the point (a,b,f(a,b)) which is perpendicular to the NORMAL to the surface at that point. The NORMAL to the surface at a point is just defined as the direction perpendicular to all tangent vectors to the surface at that point. Therefore all we need to do to find the equation of the tangent plane is to find a normal to the surface at that point.
Apart from adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), thymine (T) and uracil (U), DNA and RNA also contain bases that have been modified after the nucleic acid chain has been formed. In DNA, the most common modified base is 5-methylcytosine (m 5 C). In RNA, there are many modified bases, including those contained in the nucleosides pseudouridine (Ï), dihydrouridine (D), inosine (I), and 7-methylguanosine (m 7 G).
DNA is a doubled stranded structure, while RNA is a single stranded structure. RNA contains the sugar ribose, while DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose. RNA can have 4 nucleoti â¦ des: cytosine, guanine, uracil, and adenine. DNA can have all these nucleotides except for uracil, which is replaced by thymine.ere are some major â¦ differences between RNA and DNA: With the exception of a few viruses, RNA is a single-stranded molecule while DNA is double-stranded. The two DNA chains are connected by hydrogen bonds between nitrogenous bases. DNA can is replicated during cell division; RNA is not.
