Answer: - ligates DNA strands to one another.

Recombinase is an enzyme that catalyze site specific recombination events within DNA. In meiosis it helps to generate new combination of alleles in the event of crossing over involves genetic recombination. It recognizes specific DNA sequence, mediates cleavage of phosphodiester bonds in DNA, strand exchange between homologous chromosomes, repairs the mismatched DNA bases. It does not ligate DNA strands to one another this is performed by another enzyme named DNA Ligase.

A recombinase is an enzyme that does all of the following except ligates DNA strands to one another.  

Further Explanation:

A recombinase is a type of an enzyme that helps in catalysing the site specific recombination in the DNA. This enzyme mainly acts in multicellular organism such as eukaryotes, virus and bacteria. This enzyme helps in genetic recombination during the process of meiosis and in breaking phosphodiester bond of the DNA.They can easily repair the mismatched problem in the DNA and can easily manipulate the structure of the DNA. Some example of recombinase enzyme is Cre, Hin, Tre, and FLP.

They also help in recognizing the sequence of DNA and in the homologous recombination. A ligase is an enzyme that is responsible for the process of ligation in which the two strands of the DNA are ligate to each other. Thus, recombinase enzyme is not responsible for the process of ligation.

The correct answer is a - GTCCAATGC

According to base pairing rules, in DNA G will always pair with C and A will always pair with T.

These letters represent nucleotides. Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids namely DNA and RNA.

A denotes the nucleotide called Adenine

C denotes the nucleotide called Cytosine

G denotes the nucleotide called  Guanine

T denotes the nucleotide called Thymine.

In RNA, there is slight difference in base pairing. Since RNA never has Thymine in its structure, the thymine has been replaced with Uracil.  Therefore in RNA,  Adenine will pair with Uracil.

That question, this incomplete. The full question is:

3. Three redwood trees are kept at different humidity levels inside a greenhouse for 12 weeks. One tree is left outside in normal conditions. The heights of the trees are measured once a week. What are the dependent variables, independent and the controlled variable of this experiment?

Answer:

  • Independent variable: different humidity levels
  • Dependent variable: the heights of the trees
  • controlled variable: the types of trees

Explanation:

An independent variable is one that exerts an influence within the experiment and can be measured, acting on other elements to promote the observation of a result. As the experiment seeks to observe the influence of humidity on the height of the tree, we can say that humidity is the independent variable.

Dependent variable is that which is influenced by the independent variable to generate a result that can be observed, can also be measured. As the experiment wishes to analyze how the height of the trees was affected by the level of humidity, we can say that the height of the trees is the dependent variable.

Controlled variable is that which is present in the experiment in a constant and equal way, cannot be measured. This variable is the type of trees.
