Question: Which two statements are true for the leading strand in DNA?
It is synthesized toward the replication fork.
It is synthesized in the 3′ to 5′ direction.
It is synthesized away from the replication fork.
It is synthesized in the 5′ to 3′ direction.
Answer:
The two statements that are true for the leading strand in DNA are "it is synthesized toward the replication fork and it is synthesized in the 5′ to 3′ direction"
Explanation:
Leading strand in DNA is the strand of new DNA being synthesized in the same direction where the replication fork is moving. The movement of replication fork allows the access of template for the new DNA. The DNA synthesis is continuous in the leading strand. It is synthesized in the 5' to 3' as DNA synthesis always takes place in this direction. This is because dNTP ( deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate) provides free 3' OH group where new dNTP can be added by the enzyme DNA polymerase.
Answer:
Molecules of gas starts movement when they get energy from the sun in the form of heat.
Explanation:
Molecules of gas absorbed heat energy coming from sun. This heat energy is converted into kinetic energy due to which gas molecule moves faster. Volume of gas molecules also increases due to expansion of molecules by the absorption of heat energy. So more space is occupied by gas molecule as compared to liquid molecules.
Answer: The cell membrane invaginates and pinches off, creating a vesicle within the cell.
Explanation:
Endocytosis is an active transport mechanism, for particules to be transported, the plasma membrane of the cell invaginates, forming a pocket around the target particle. The pocket then pinches off, resulting in the particle being contained in a newly created intracellular vesicle formed from the plasma membrane.
Answer:
D. Sunlight
Explanation:
Since photosynthesis provides the energy the plant needs for growth, lack of light will stunt the plant's growth.
