In eukaryotes, the DNA strands are linear, and DNA polymerase can't replicate the very ends of the DNA strands! These ends are "protected" by repeated sequences called "telomeres." Either the chromosome gets shorter with each replication, or else a special enzyme-nucleic acid complex called telomerase adds new telomeres to the ends. A prokaryotic chromosome is circular and thus does not have the problem of having ended.
<span>Eukaryotic DNA is wound around histones, coiled, and supercoiled -- to replicate it, there have to be unwinding mechanisms, and mechanisms to reduce the degree of coiling. In prokaryotes, the winding problem is much less, and there aren't any histones.</span>
Answer:
d a discrete combination of traits, for example Masaai cattle herding.
Explanation:
A cultural complex consists of different cultural traits that together create a 'culture'. Thus, a cultural complex can be defined as a group of cultural traits that are functionally interrelated. A cultural trait can in turn be defined as any acquired knowledge that is learned by social interaction and interpersonal relationships. Moreover, a cultural pattern occurs when cultural traits and cultural complexes associate each other in functional roles.
Answer:
Law of Independent assortment
Explanation:
Gregor Mendel, who was regarded the father of Genetics, discovered principles that governs inheritance in his experiments. He discovered that the alleles of a gene will separate into gametes when he performed a crossed involving a single gene or character like height, pea color etc. He proposed his law of segregation based on this.
However, he considered two characters or genes in his cross, which he called a DIHYBRID cross. He discovered that the alleles of each different gene separates into gametes independently of one another i.e. without one gene influencing the other in each gamete. He called this principle his LAW OF INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT.
He obtained a 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio for the F2 dihybrid offsprings which is only possible if each gamete equally likely contains two alleles of the two different genes in different combinations.
Answer:
A). True
Explanation:
tRNA, which means transfer RNA is one of the three types of RNA known in nature. The tRNA is found in the ribosome, where it plays a pivotal role in protein synthesis (translation). Transfer RNA is the RNA responsible for reading the nucleotides in the mRNA codon and carrying the amino acid that corresponds those codons to the ribosome.
The tRNA has a 3-dimensional structure that allows it to carry anticodon that reads codon and also carry amino acids on opposite ends. Hence, according to this question, tRNA is a type of RNA that delivers amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.
