Why is the new dna strand complementary to the 3' to 5' strands assembled in short segments? why is the new dna strand complemen

tary to the 3' to 5' strands assembled in short segments? only short dna sequences can extend off the rna primers the replication forks block the formation of longer strands dna polymerase can assemble dna only in the 5' to 3' direction dna polymerase can assemble dna only in the 3' to 5' direction it is more efficient than assembling complete new strands?

<span>During DNA synthesis the DNA is unwound but only a portion at a time, the replication fork progresses in the 5'-->3' direction, and both strands are synthesized at the same time. When the fork progresses, the 3'-->5' strand will need a new primer because it was working in the opposite direction of the fork. So the answer is because "DNA polymerase can assemble DNA only in the 5' to 3' direction".</span>

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

The ATP synthase can be thought of as a type of molecule motor that is powered by the flow of __H+_ through the subunits and __down_ their concentration gradient.

Explanation:

There are two steps for the synthesis of carbohydrates in plants; one is light reaction and other is dark reaction. In light reaction the ATP and NADPH are produced from sunlight and these molecules are utilized for combining the carbon molecules in dark reaction.

Before we discuss chemiosmosis (Mechanism of ATP production) we should know that light reaction takes place in the thylakoid membrane of chloroplast. During the light reaction electrons removed from water are excited by light in photosystem I and photosystem II. These excited electron release the energy while traveling down the electron transport chain which is utilized to pump the H+ ions to stroma from lumen. This build a concentration difference of H+ ions across the membrane.

So when these H+ ions flow from stroma to lumen i.e. higher potential to lower potential they passes through ATP synthase complex. ATP synthase produces the ATP by the phosphorylation of ADP that why mechanism is also referred as Photophosphorylation.
