Jacob Syndrome In Hindi : Biology Blog

Image
                                     Jacob Syndrome  Jacob syndrome is due to presence of extra Y chromosome in males . This syndrome is also known as super male or criminal syndrome . Usually  in human being , there are 46 chromosomes but such a patients have extra Y chromosomes due to this the chromosome number changed from 46 to 47 . For more information click on this video .  Visit the full video for Jacob or supermale syndrome .    

Prokaryotes: Structure & Examples | Biology Blog

                              Prokaryotes                     characteristics, cell structure , examples of prokaryotic cells                                     Prokaryotes are consist of eubacteria and arceha. The Organism that comes under  Prokaryotes are microscopic, simple organisms and the cell lacks a true nucleus.   The major characteristics of prokaryotes are as below - Features of prokaryotic Organism - True membrane-bound nucleus -   absent DNA complexed with histone - absent Number of chromosomes - One Ribosome - 70 S and 80 S Unit membrane-bound organelles - absent cell wall -  present in most of the prokaryotic cells and made up of peptidoglycan. Mitosis and meiosis - absent genetic recombination -...

What are Important Features of Flatworms

Image
                                  Phylum Platyhelminthus  Here are some important  features of phylum Platyhelminthus . Let's overview it .  Important Characters -                They are acoelomate and triploblastic . Body is leaf like or in ribbon shape forms and do not have  segmentation . They do not any circulatory system .  Digestive system absent . They follow organ level system of  organisation . They are bilaterally symmetrical organism . Hermaphrodite . Nervous system comprises of  brain and two longitudinal nerve which is connected at intervals by transverse commissures . They have internal fertilization . Asexual reproduction through fission .  Flame cells are present in the form of excretory system . Example - Taenia (Tapeworms )  , Fasciola ( Liver Fluke ) . 

Chargaff's rule of DNA

Image
                                      Chargaff's Rule  Erwin Chargaff's proposed two rules which are known as chargaff rules. This role plays a key role in double helix structure discovery. Here the rules are : - Rule 1 -  In DNA structure the total number of purines is equal to a total number of pyrimidine .,i.e., the number of guanine units is equal to the number of cytosine unit and the number of adenine units is equal to thymine units. Rule 2 -   In every species there is a unique composition of  DNA  is present in its body. Hence ,  in double stranded structure of DNA                                       A = T =  1                                   ...
