Question

recall that the bonds holding together a dna molecules two nucleotide strands, as well as the temporary bonds between a dna template strand and rna nucleotides during elongation, are weak hydrogen bonds. how would transcription be affected if these bonds were strong covalent bonds? complete the sentence. covalent bonds require __ energy to break than hydrogen bonds do, so transcription would be a __ energy - efficient process for the cell. more...more more...less less...more less...less

Explanation:

Covalent bonds are stronger than hydrogen bonds, so they need more energy to break. Using more energy for a biological process makes it less energy-efficient for the cell.

Answer:

more...less
