Answer:

ligase activity

Explanation:

This is because ligase has the role to connect DNA fragments.

DNA gyrase is one of the enzymes involved in prokaryotic DNA replication. It introduces  negative supercoils into DNA and for this process ATP is required.  This enables the process of replication to continue.

topjm [15]

Answer:

C. Sprout every year, year after year

Explanation:

The perennial plants are the plants that live for more then two years, thous some may argue that they are plants that live more then three years. Whichever the case, they are not short-lived plants, but are capable of surviving for numerous years, unlike the annuals and biennials. Theoretically, the shrubs and trees would fall into this category, but they are classified separately, and this term is not used for them, but for smaller plants that do not have or have very little woody parts. These plants tend to sprout every year, and even though they seemingly die in the autumn, their roots are alive, and they emerge and grow again in the spring, sprouting again. That process repeats itself for numerous years.
