Answer:

A.

Explanation:

It's caused by the absence of an enzyme that helps break down fatty substances. These fatty substances, called gangliosides, build up to toxic levels in the brain and spinal cord and affect the function of the nerve cells

Answer: W = 6.4x10⁻²¹J

Explanation: <u>Work</u> is the energy transferred to or from an object due to the application of a force along a displacement.

The ion Na is gaining energy to move from a lower potential to a higher one.

For this to happen, the work done is calculated as

W=q.\Delta V

in which

W is work in Joules (J)

q is charge in Coulomb (C)

\Delta V is potential difference in Volts (V)

The ion Na has one positive charge. In coulombs, the charge is

q = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹C

The potential difference in Volts is

\Delta V = 40x10⁻³ or 4x10⁻²V

Calculating

W=q.\Delta V

W = 1.6x10⁻¹⁹. 4x10⁻²

W = 6.4 x 10⁻²¹ J

The work done to move an ion of sodium from the exterior to the interior is 6.4 x 10⁻²¹ J.

DNA replication of chromosomal DNA in a cell requires all of the following, EXCEPT A) DNA polymerase B) primase C) helicase D) R
Viktor [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is D)RNA polymerase

Explanation:

In DNA replication many enzymes and proteins are required to replicate a DNA template. For initiation of DNA synthesis the two DNA strands must be separated which is done by helicase.

Then primase adds short nucleotide sequence and initiate DNA replication. After that DNA polymerase acts and adds nucleotide at the 3' end of growing  DNA strand. Ligase is the enzyme that joins the two Okazaki fragments that are created in the lagging strand.

RNA polymerase is not required in DNA replication and it works in transcription therefore the correct answer is RNA polymerase.

IgorC [24]

Answer:

↓

Explanation:

I can't really read what you have typed, but the subscripts are the little numbers such as this 2 in H₂O. So using the blue pen, I'm assuming you would circle the little numbers. The coefficients are the numbers in front of the elements so from what I can read, in 2HCl the 2 would be circled in the orange. So in a simple way the subscripts are the tiny numbers that are at the bottom (usually after elements), and the coefficients are normal numbers in front of the whole element.

Hopefully that makes sense! :)
