The backbone of the DNA strand is made from alternating phosphate and sugar residues. The sugar in DNA is 2-deoxyribose, which is a pentose (five-carbon) sugar. The sugars are joined together by phosphate groups that form phosphodiester bonds between the third and fifth carbon atoms of adjacent sugar rings.ranscription is carried out by a DNA-dependent RNA polymerase that copies the sequence of a DNA strand into RNA. To begin transcribing a gene, the RNA polymerase binds to a sequence of DNA called a promoter and separates the DNA strands.
Whitetail bucks can lose their antlers beginning as early as mid to late December. However, most bucks won't start to shed their antlers until late January or early February depending on where you are in the country. Some bucks will still have their antlers as late March.
Whitetail Deer do not achieve maturity until they are 5 to 7 years of age. Studies have showed the average Whitetail Buck achieves only about 10 percent of his potential antler development by age 1.5 years (at the completion of his first set of antlers as an 18 month old buck).t 3 years of age a Whitetail Buck still only has achieved about 50 percent of his potential antler quality. Not until 5 to 7 years of age that most Whitetail Bucks approach their full antler potential.
