How long would it take

Biology
1 answer:
Valentin [98]3 years ago
3 0
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.

Compare and contrast three metabolic pathways by choosing whether the statement applies to aerobic respiration. Check all that a
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer will be options

1. Process includes glycolysis.

2. Between 2 and 38 ATP are produced per molecule of glucose input .

3. Much or most of the ATP produced is produced by oxidative phosphorylation.

4. Process involves electron transport and chemiosmosis.

5.  End products are CO₂ and H₂O.

6. Process involves the Krebs cycle.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the oxidative process which involves the breakdown of food molecules like glucose, amino acids and fats to release heat and energy in the form of ATP.

In the presence of oxygen or aerobic respiration it undergoes four stages: glycolysis, link reaction, Krebs cycle and electron transport chain while in the anaerobic reaction it produces ethanol and carbon dioxide by the process of fermentation.

Each stage produces energy in the form of ATP molecules or co-enzymes NADH OR FADH₂ like glycolysis produces 2 ATP and link reaction, Krebs cycle produces NADH OR FADH₂ in addition to ATP. Each NADH produces 3 ATP while Each FADH₂ produces 2 ATP during electron transport chain.  So, ATP molecules are produced between 2 to 38 ATP molecules in each stage with large number during electron transport chain from these co-enzymes.

The waste products produced in the stages of cellular respiration are CO₂ molecules and H₂O which is also known as metabolic water.

Sergeeva-Olga [200]
<h2>Scientist Observing changes </h2>

If the population of the species is significantly decreasing then the species could become extinct. The decline in population is due to some factors like less immigration, aging, and decreasing fertility rates. But the most is due to less immigration which causes to decrease population. The extinction of population can be prevented by some serious actions which should be taken government.
