Why might the cell theory actually be a law?

1 answer:

8 0

Due to a law being a predicted sort of event that is bound to happen every time, a pattern, we can say that since the cell theory is a pattern instead of a possible explanation, it can be a law. However, since we don't have an accurate explanation to the part which claims that they all come from pre-existing cells, it is a theory, we don't have enough information to confirm that the theory is a solid fact, therefore, we can't confirm that it is a law.

Select all that apply. Which of the following are not properties of enzymes

AlladinOne [14]

Enzymes are proteins that are biological catalysts

They reduce the activation energy required for a reaction to occur and thus speed up a reaction

Temperature, above a certain point (optimum temperature) causes them to break down and they are gradually destroyed (denaturing)

They work best at a particular pH (optimum pH) and are once again destroyed by low or high pH's

They have a specific shape, with one particular part, known as the active site, that is specific to the substrate they speed the reaction of. These means they are specific to one type of reaction.

They aren't used in the reaction so they're re-usable.

If it isn't one of these then it is not one of the properties of enzymes

If the nucleotide sequence on one side of a DNA molecule is CCTAGCT, then the sequence on the complementary strand of DNA will b

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:GGATCGA

Explanation:

The complementary double helix of the DNA are antipararell to each other.

Chargaff's rule state that Adenine always pairs with thymine (double bond) and Cytosine always pairs with guanine (triple bond).

Therefore if a DNA molecule is CCTAGCT, then the sequence on the complementary strand of DNA will be GGATCGA as written below

5' CCTAGCT 3'

3' GGATCGA 5'
