A DNA strand is lengthened in the 5'-3' direction by DNA polymerase. And this process is known as the elongation.

What are the properties of DNA Polymerase?

  • Using the DNA template strand and a starting primer, an enzyme known as (DNA-dependent) DNA polymerase creates a new DNA strand in the 5' to 3' direction.
  • The growing synthesized DNA strand is supplemented by the DNA polymerase with complementary nucleotides one at a time. Base-pairing is the process by which the complementary sets of nucleotides are joined to the bases of the template DNA strand.
  • Some DNA polymerases also possess 3'-5' exonuclease activity, which checks DNA strands for replication mistakes.

When hypothesizing a possible phylogeny in order to classify taxa,scientists incorporate systematics to
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

B)provide molecular or genetic information, as well as morphological information.

Explanation:

Systematics is the science of classification and phylogeny reconstruction. Studies diversity as a consequence of evolutive history and establishes the bases to reconstruct biological patterns and formulate hypotheses to explain the processes of these patterns. It reconstructs the origin and diversification of a taxon. Systematics creates systems of classification represented in a tree. Taxonomy is based on systematics.

The main goal of systematics is to solve the genealogical relationship between different species and biological groups that produces natural clusters.

Systematic considers morphological characters, as well as physiological, cytological, molecular, and behavioral characters.

Urban sprawl covers land once used for food production and destroys ecosystems.
wlad13 [49]
It is true that Urban sprawl covers land once used for food production and destroys ecosystems. Many of the large cities that have come up were once fertile lands for irrigation or were big jungles. These jungles were cut down or the fertile lands destroyed to build cities and industries.
By the United States Census Bureau standards, a population of 1000 people define an urban area is completely false statement. As per the United States Census Bureau, more than 50000 people define an urban area.

If both parents contribute identical versions of a gene, then the offspring are ______ for that gene.
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Homozygous is the condition that the offsprings would have, if both their parents contribute identical versions of a gene.

<h3>What is the difference between homozygous and heterozygous ?</h3>
  • Homozygous and heterozygous are terms that are used to describe allele pairs.
  • Individuals carrying two identical alleles (RR or rr) are known as homozygous.
  • Individual organisms bearing different alleles (Rr) are known as heterozygous.
  • Homozygous produce only one type of gamete whereas heterozygous produce two types of gametes.
