Answer to Question 1

As DNA is replicated, the new chain is synthesized in the 5' to 3' direction.

Answer to Question 2

Step 1 Attachment of 5'-DMT-N-benzoyl-2'-deoxyaguanosine to the polymer support by a 3' ester linkage.
Step 2 Deprotection of the 5'-hydroxyl by cleavage of the DMT ether with dichloroacetic acid in CH2Cl2.
Step 3 Phosphite formation between the free 5'-hydroxyl of the polymer-bound N-protected 2'-deoxyguanosine and the phosphoramidite protected 5'-DMT-2'-deoxycytidine in the presence of tetrazole followed by oxidation to the phosphate triester with I2.
Step 4 Repeat step 2 to deprotect the 5'-hydroxyl of the polymerGC.
Step 5 Repeat step 3 to form the phosphate triester between 5'-hydroxyl of 2'-deoxycytidine residue and phosphoramidite protected 5'-DMT-N-benzoyl-2'-deoxythymidine.
Step 6 Cleave all protecting groups from the heterocyclic bases from the phosphates, as well as cleave the ester bond holding the DNA to the silica by treatment with aqueous ammonia.

For high blood pressure (hypertension), a new class of drug, called a vasopeptidase blocker (inhibitor), has been developed. It decreases blood pressure by simultaneously dilating the peripheral arteries and increasing the body's loss of salt.

Before a vaccine is licensed in the USA, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reviews it for safety and effectiveness. The CDC then reviews all studies again, as well as the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Academy of Family Physicians. Every lot of vaccine is tested before administration to the public, and the FDA regularly inspects vaccine manufacturers' facilities.
