When the total pressure is considered, as in chemical analysis and in thermodynamics it is often referred to as psia or absolute pressure of the substance or of the fluid which would then include the atmospheric pressure. It is important to include the subscript g or a to define which pressure is being noted. Psi can also be the difference between two pressures, be they gage or absolute. Psi is also used in materials engineering referring to the unit stress caused when a load is imposed on a structure or on a part.
Adenine is one of the two purine nucleobases (the other being guanine) used in forming nucleotides of the nucleic acids. In DNA, adenine binds to thymine via two hydrogen bonds to assist in stabilizing the nucleic acid structures. In RNA, which is used for protein synthesis, adenine binds to uracil.
A DNA nucleotide is composed of 3 main units: a sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. While the sugar and phosphate group alternate in sequence and form the backbone of the DNA double helix, the nitrogenous bases may differ in every adjoining nucleotide.The four nitrogenous bases present in DNA are adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C) and thymine (T).In RNA, the only differing nitrogenous base is uracil (U) (which replaces thymine in DNA and differs thymine only by the missing methyl group at carbon 5 of the pyrimidine ring).hile the sugar and phosphate group alternate in sequence and form the backbone of the DNA double helix, the nitrogenous bases may differ in every adjoining nucleotide. The four nitrogenous bases present in DNA are adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C) and thymine (T).
