How does heat transfer from the tea to the spoon?

1 answer:

8 0

This occurs through conduction when two things get in contact with each other.

here's a definition from kid's britannica: "<span>Conduction transfers heat within a body or between two bodies that are touching. It is a point-by-point process of heat transfer. Conduction occurs in solids, liquids, or gases that are at rest. Energy flows, but the substance through which the heat is being transferred does not itself flow."</span>

How can tools of molecular biology be used to compare the DNA of two individuals?

sattari [20]

The way that tools of molecular biology can be used to compare the DNA of two individuals is the restriction enzyme and gel electrophoresis can be used to match or compare DNA. Meanwhile, PCR can be used to copy DNA if there is no enough DNA to examine

The Replication process in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells is quite similar. Almost the same enzymes are involved. 1)eukaryotic, 2)multiple, 3)circular.

<h3>What is the prokaryotic DNA replication process?</h3>

In prokaryotic cells, DNA Replication consists of the unwinding and opening of the double-stranded DNA molecule, a process that starts at the replication origin.

The process is completed in three stages,

⇒ Initiation, in which helicase and topoisomerase are the first enzymes involved.

Helicase works in the replication origin.

It separates the DNA into two strands allowing the replication fork to advance by unwinding the DNA.

It breaks hydrogen bonds between nitrogenated bases pairs.

Topoisomerase impedes the DNA double helix near the replication forks to get too coiled when the DNA is opening.

⇒ Elongation, in which DNA polymerase I and III, primase, and ligase act,

Polymerase I and III are responsible for DNA elongation.

They are in charge of adding nucleotides to the growing chain, from 3' to 5' extremes.

It includes only nucleotides that complement the original strand.

They need to recognize a primer to begin.

The new chain grows in 5’-3’ direction

Primase is in charge of synthesizing primers.

DNA polymerase I eliminate ARN primers and substitute them with DNA.

DNA ligase seals the gaps that remain after replacing the primers.

⇒ Mistakes correction

Endonuclease cuts the wrong segment

Polymerase I and III are in charge of correcting errors and filling empty spaces.

Ligase seals the corrected extremes.

The prokaryotic replication result is two DNA molecules, each of them carrying an old strand and a new strand.

<h3>What is the eukaryotic DNA replication process?</h3>

Eukaryotic DNA replication is the process through which DNI molecule duplicates. This event takes place during the S stage of the interphase. So when the cell divides during mitosis or meiosis, each cell will get a complete set of chromosomes.

DNI replication is semi-conservative because each new molecule carries an original DNI strand and a new one. The fact that the new molecule is composed of an original strand makes it semi-conservative. The old existing strands are used to synthesize the new complementary strand.

The main difference concerning the prokaryotic replication process is that in eukaryotic cells there are

5 different polymerase enzymes
several replication origins per chromosome
involves histones

The origin of the replication requires

The helicase enzyme breaks hydrogen bonds and separates the two original strands.

The topoisomerase enzyme is necessary to release tension.

Other proteins are also needed to join the strains and keep them separated.

Once the molecule is opened, there is a region named replication forks.

DNA polymerase makes the new nucleotides enter the fork and pairs them with the corresponding nucleotide of the original strand. Adenine pairs thymine, and cytosine pairs guanine.

DNA strands are antiparallel, and replication occurs only in 5'-3'direction. So one of the strands will replicate continuously, while the other strain will be formed by short fragments known as Okazaki fragments.

Primers are needed to make the DNA polymerase work. Primers are small units of RNA and are placed at the beginning of each new fragment. These are later eliminated by Polymerase.

Ligase seals the gaps.
