Answer:
During interphase, the cell copies its DNA in preparation for mitosis. Interphase is the 'daily living' or metabolic phase of the cell, in which the cell obtains nutrients and metabolizes them, grows, replicates its DNA, and conducts other "normal" cell functions. This phase was formerly called the resting phase.
Mastication is the process by which food is crushed and ground by teeth. It increases the surface area of foods to allow a more efficient break down by enzymes.
One of the reasons why the fish population remains approximately the same from one generation to the next is because not all the eggs laid will survive to adulthood. There are several factors which bring about elimination of the the newly hatched eggs. Examples of these are predators and diseases which eliminate the young offsprings at different stages before they develop into adulthood.
Secondly, production of many eggs by the different fish species leads to competition for survival. Resources such as water, food, oxygen and shelter have to be fought for and its only the fittests that will be able to survive till the reproduction stage.
Answer:
3' to 5'; 5' to 3'
Explanation:
The DNA strand with 3' to 5' polarity serves as a template for the process of transcription. Using the 3' to 5' DNA template strand, the enzyme RNA polymerase catalyzes the formation of RNA. The ribonucleotides are bonded together by phosphodiester bonds that are formed in 5' to 3' direction only. The formation of RNA occurs in 5' to 3' direction. The DNA template strand has a complementary nucleotide sequence to the newly synthesized RNA.
