The right answer is nucleotide biosynthesis.

Favism or deficiency of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, or deficiency of G6PD, is the most widespread enzymatic deficiency in the world. Of genetic origin, it is characterized by a destruction of the red blood cells (hemolysis) during the ingestion of beans or the taking of certain drugs (especially synthesized antimalarials).

The enzyme Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase is involved in the pentose phosphate pathway that produces riboses that are part of the nucleotide composition.

Why do so many people believe there is a link between autism and the measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine?
alexandr1967 [171]
The measles, mumps and the rubella vaccine [MMR] is usually given to children twice before the age of 7.  The first dose is given between age 12 to 15 months while the second dose is given between the ages of 4 and 6. Many people link the MMR vaccines to autism because of a scientific publication that was published in 1989. The research study reported a link between autism and MMR vaccination. This publication has been discredited.
Also, the period of during which the first dose of the vaccination is usually given coincides with the time when parents usually notice developmental abnormalities in their children.

Why in nucleic acid replication one strand is ahead while the other strand is behind?
kvasek [131]

Answer:

Because the leading strand is synthesized continuously while the lagging strand is discontinuously synthesized.

Explanation:

Two DNA strands have opposite polarity, that is, the 5' end of one strand lies opposite to the 3' end of the other strand. However, DNA replication can occur in 5' to 3' direction only since the formation of phosphodiester bonds require the presence of nucleophile 3' OH to attack the 5' phosphate of an incoming deoxyribonucleotide.  

The problem is solved by the synthesis of the leading strand continuously and the synthesis of the lagging strand in a discontinuous manner. Lagging strand synthesis requires the formation of primers and their elongation to form Okazaki fragments that may have few hundreds to few thousands of nucleotides. Removal of primers from Okazaki fragments is followed by joining them together to make the long lagging strand. The discontinuous replication of the lagging strand makes the replication at the leading strand ahead of it.

Gene control mechanisms, or "gene expression," control _____.
Luda [366]

Answer:

I believe the  correct answer is<em> </em><u><em>C. mRnA translation. </em></u>

Explanation:

Because the gene expression is controlled on two levels. First, transcription is controlled by limiting the amount of mRNA that is produced from a particular gene. The second level of control is through post-transcriptional events that regulate the translation of mRNA into proteins.
