Answer:

DNA template strand 3' ________ 5'

DNA nontemplate strand 5' ________ 3'

Option B

Explanation:

DNA template strand is also the coding strand from which the mRNA is transcribed thus to transcribe an mRNA moving in the 5' to 3' direction, the template strand must run in the 3' to 5' direction while the non template which is the non coding strand and also is the same as the mRNA strand runs in the 5' to 3' direction.

The RNA polymerase moves and transcribes this mRNA in the 3' to 5' direction along the template strand.

Answer:

B) 3' - 5' direction along the template strand

Explanation:

Transcription is the first stage of gene expression or protein synthesis. It involves making a complementary strand of mRNA from a DNA template. The process of transcription is carried out by an enzyme called RNA polymerase. RNA polymerase initially binds to a specific region on the DNA called PROMOTER region. This triggers the initiation process.

The RNA polymerase then begins to read one strand of the DNA molecule called TEMPLATE strand. The template strand reads in the 3'-5' direction. The RNA polymerase, unwinding the double helix of the DNA as it progresses, reads the nucleotide bases on the template DNA strand and synthesizes complementary bases on the growing RNA molecule. The RNA transcript contains same information as the non-template DNA strand with the exception of Uracil base instead of Thymine. The RNA strand reads in the 5'-3' direction.

Hence, the RNA polymerase moves in the 3'-5' direction on the template strand during transcription.

Describe the path blood takes through the circulatory
ratelena [41]
Ooh this will be good

So blood let’s say starts in the left atrium where it goes down through the mitral valve into the left ventricle. From the left ventricle of the blood is pushed through the aorta and from there through the various branches of the body eventually allowing oxygen rich blood to flow all across the body. Once this blood is picked up by veins as deoxygenated blood it goes back to the heart through the inferior and superior vena cava. From there the deoxygenated blood is sent into the right atrium, through the tricuspid vale into the right ventricle, through the pulmonic valve into the pulmonary artery and into the lungs for re-oxygenation. The re-oxygenated blood (oxygen rich blood) now goes through the pulmonary veins into the left atrium and the cycle beings again.


Remember this, Left side of heart is for oxygenated blood, Right side of heart is for deoxygenated blood.

Artery takes oxygen rich blood away from heart itself
Vein takes oxygen poor blood back into the heart

Exceptions, Pulmonary Artery takes oxygen poor blood away from heart and into lungs

Pulmonary vein takes oxygen rich blood into the left atrium to be pushed to the rest of e body.

Which of the following might you use to help you make observations?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

Touching, Smelling.

Explanation:

Touching will be useful to detect stimuli like coldness and hotness.

Smelling on the other hand will help to make observations on smell and change in smell. These two are among the five senses that we use to make observations as we record what we see, hear, touch and feel, smell and taste.
