The destroyer escort proved to be a vessel that filled the gap between patrol craft and the larger destroyer. Unquestionably, the crews of the âsmall boys of the fleet, and the navy yard workers, have left behind a proud legacy of service to their country.
A kilobecquerel (kBq) is a decimal multiple of the SI derived unit of radiation activity. The Bq is defined as the activity of a quantity of radioactive material in which one nucleus decays per second.
A kilobase (kb) is a unit of measurement in molecular biology equal to 1000 base pairs of DNA or RNA. The total amount of related DNA base pairs on Earth is estimated at 5.0 x 10 37, and weighs 50 billion tonnes.he regular structure and data redundancy provided by the DNA double helix make DNA well suited to the storage of genetic information, while base-pairing between DNA and incoming nucleotides provides the mechanism through which DNA polymerase replicates DNA, and RNA polymerase transcribes DNA into RNA.
