Ciprofloxacin inhibits DNA gyrase, a bacterial topoisomerase that cuts DNA ahead of the replication fork, winds the DNA in a dir

ection that relieves the twists added during DNA synthesis, and then reseals the DNA. In ciprofloxacin-treated bacteria, newly synthesized DNA is found in fragments.

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.

What is the net gain in ATP in glycolysis?
Butoxors [25]

Glycolysis, the first process in cell respiration, produces four ATP, but it uses two of the ATP molecules, therefore producing a net two ATP molecules. The process also yields two molecules of NADH.Glycolysis begins with glucose and breaks it down into two molecules of phosphoglyceraldehyde.
