The following points highlight the three main constituents of nucleus. The constituents are: 1. Nuclear Envelope 2. Nucleolus 3. Nucleoplasm. Constituent # 1. Nuclear Envelope: Under the electron microscope the nuclear envelope appears to consist of two membranes, the outer and the inner nuclear membranes, separated by a perinuclear space of 20 nm (Fig. 2.65).

Relation among Nucleic Acids, Nucleotides and Nucleosides
Article Shared by
In this article we will discuss about the relations among nucleic acids, nucleotides and nucleosides. Nucleic Acids: These are defined as polynucleotides composed of repeating units ribonucleotides (in RNA) or deoxyribonucleotides (in DNA). The difference between the two structure is that in deoxyribonudeotides there is no-OH group in position 2′. The presence of three esterifiable-OH […]
