Answer:
A) DNA polymerase is a directional enzyme that synthesizes leading and lagging strands during replication.
Explanation:
DNA polymerase synthesizes the new DNA strand from the template strands. Both the strands in a DNA molecule act as templates, however both of them have different orientation. It was observed that 3'-5' template DNA produced a new DNA strand continuously in one step. However, 5'-3' template produced new DNA strand in fragments which were joined together later. This observation gave the idea that DNA polymerase is a directional enzyme. It synthesizes DNA in 5'-3' direction so 3'-5' template gave rise to a continuous DNA segment. However, for 5'-3' template, DNA polymerase had to synthesize in opposite direction i.e. 3'-5' which was not possible directly. So the enzyme replicates it in short separate fragments which are later joined by DNA ligase.
Due to convergent evolution placental mammals (Wolf) are closely related to marsupial wolves (Tasmanian wolf). No, the tree is wrong.
What is convergent evolution?
It is the presence of similar features in animals of different lineages. The structures in these animals have similar functions but are absent in the common ancestors hence they are analogous structures not homologous.
Such convergence of functional, morphological, and structural traits from phylogenetically unrelated species may be a result of random mutation due to selection pressure.
Here, the Tasmanian wolf (marsupial wolf) and wolf (placental mammal) have several morphological similarities but they have unrelated ancestral lineages. Hence they show convergent evolution. These two subclasses of mammals have adapted to a specific food source, locomotor ability, or environment in similar ways.
Hence, the placental wolf and Tasmanian wolf exist sharing the same habitat in different continents former in Asia and the latter in Australia because these two show convergent evolution.
