What is happening to the DNA molecule in the figure? (Explain the first step in DNA replication)
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

As this is DNA replication, this is the unwounding process

Explanation:

In DNA replication, the parent DNA to be replicated is unwound to enable access of the replication machinery (replisome) to this genetic material. The origin of replication will be identified first, which in the prokaryotes is only one, and in the eukaryotes, we have many. This sites are recognized by specific sequences on the genome. after this, melting of the DNA occurs at this origin creating a replication bubble and two replication forks. This  allows for the unwinding of the DNA by the enzyme Helicases in the direction of the replication fork. Another enzyme present in this step is also the single strand binding proteins (SSB). These proteins function in the prevention of re-anealing of the unwound DNA strand by attaching themselves to each strands. Another enzyme called the topoisomerases also function here by reducing the torque (twisting) produced upstream of the replication fork as result of DNA unwounding. An example is the gyrase

If the density of water is 1 g/ml, what is the mass of 3ml of water?<br><br> PLEASE HELP
SCORPION-xisa [38]

You can use dimensional analysis to figure this out.

=3\ ml × \frac{1g}{ml}

= 3 grams

If done correctly, ml and ml will cancel out, leaving you with grams.

If you don't know dimensional analysis, simply multiply <em>3 ml</em> by <em>1 grams </em>and that should still get you 3 grams.

An internal membrane system where lipid components of the cell membrane are assembled, along with proteins and other materials
MakcuM [25]
A. Lipid bilayer: the phospholipid bilayer is the membrane of a cell. The bilayer contains lipids, membrane proteins, cholesterol, receptors for various molecules, pumps to transport ions and solutes against the concentration gradient, and many other items necessary for a cell to function and work together with other cells.

b. Osmotic pressure: Osmosis is the flow of water across a semipermeable barrier from an area of low solute concentration to high solute concentration. Osmotic pressure is the lowest possible pressure to prevent this water movement.

c. Endoplasmic Reticulum: the Rough ER synthesizes proteins for use outside the cell. The Smooth ER produces lipids and some steroidal hormones.

A. Lipid Bilayer is therefore the correct answer. Osmotic pressure does not involve the various components of the cell membrane, and the ER's produce proteins and hormones. Therefore A is right.

Hope this helps! :) Let me know if you need a clarification.
