How are water molecules able to bond to each other?

1 answer:

8 0

Water has a remarkable ability to cling to itself and other substances. The propensity of water molecules to be attracted to other water molecules, allowing water to be a "sticky" liquid, is described by the property of cohesion.

<h3>Which bond is present between water?</h3>

The difference in charge between slightly positive hydrogen ions and other, slightly negative ions causes hydrogen bonds, which are electrostatic forces.

Hydrogen bonds form between adjoining hydrogen and oxygen atoms of adjacent water molecules in the case of water. A hydrogen bond is formed when individual water molecules attract each other.

How are 3-D printers useful in studying evolution?

djyliett [7]

They can use 3d printers to make identical copies of things such as fossils. The reason why that is useful is because REAL fossils are rare. So they can still study the traits and characteristics of the fossils without having to buy a fossil or find one because they are rare and they cost a lot

Determine whether the characteristics describe DNA replication in prokaryotes only, eukaryotes only, or both prokaryotes and euk

SVEN [57.7K]

Explanation:

DNA replication is a process common to both prokaryotes and Eukaryotes with few differences and similarities.

<u>Differences:</u>

1. Origin of replication (ori) : is a sequence of the genome where initiation of replication takes place. Prokaryotes have only single ori while eukaryotes have multiple ori as the DNA is large in eukaryotes so require multiple or to replicate whole DNA.

2. Replication site: prokaryotes lack nucleus where DNA is present in the cytoplasm while eukaryotes posses nucleus which encloses DNA. Therefore, replication takes place in cytoplasm in prokaryotes while in the nucleus in eukaryotes.

<u>Similarities:</u>

1. Enzymes: both posses same enzymes for DNA replication like DNA helicase, primase, polymerase.

2. The direction of synthesis: the enzyme DNA polymerase synthesizes new strand of DNA in the same direction that is 5' to 3' direction.

Thus, marked answer in the table are correct answer.
