How long would it take

Biology
1 answer:
Valentin [98]3 years ago

Solution:
4.2 x 10^6 bp/10^3 bp/seconds         = 4.2 + 103 s which is 4200 seconds and equivalents to 70 minutes

In addition, assuming a pause of 2 seconds for re initiating after completing every okazaki fragment and assuming the okazaki fragments average 1000 nucleotide long.  
4.2 x 10^6 bp/10^3 bp                        = 4200 okazaki fragments                           4200 * 2 seconds                               = 8400 seconds which is 140 minutes or 2 hours 20 minutes of pauses alone.                                                                        

Therefore, overall time would be pauses plus the 70 minutes so total time of 210 minutes. Assuming that the replisome completely disassociates from the DNA after every okazaki fragment and must spend one-minute rebinding.

4200 okazaki fragments. 60 seconds rebinding time per fragment:                        4200 x 1 minute = 4200 minutes rebinding time plus 70 minutes for actual replication. 4200 minutes is 70 hours which is almost 3 days.

How do neurons work?
kenny6666 [7]

A neuron (also known as nerve cell) is an electrically excitable cell that takes up, processes and transmits information through electrical and chemical signals. It is one of the basic elements of the nervous system. In order that a human being can react to his environment, neurons transport stimuli.

The photograph below shows some plant cells as seen under a light microscope.

Answer:

Staining

Explanation:

In order to make cells or certain features of a cell more visible under the microscope, scientists use specific stains. These stains bind to certain features in a cell, allowing better distinction. For example, iodine is a common stain used in plant cells, as it turns blue/black in the presence of starch, which is abundant in plant cells.
