Biology
1 answer:
Alexandra [31]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

C. DNA ligase adds nucleotides to the lagging strand

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process during cell division in which DNA copies itself. DNA strands unwind with the help of helicase to initiate the process. DNA Polymerase III is responsible for prokaryotic replication and adds nucleotides in 5' to 3' direction. Since both the strands of DNA run in opposite direction their replication is slightly different. The lagging strand is also formed by DNA Polymerase III in discontinuous manner leading to formation of Okazaki fragments. DNA ligase joins these fragments once the replication process is completed.

"what is total volume of the gas-exchanging region of the lungs?"
MrMuchimi
The total volume of the gas-exchanging region in the lung is called alveolar volume.

The alveolus is an air sack-like organ in the end of the respiratory airway. The alveolus is the site where gas-exchanging happens, so only air inside alveolus that will undergo actual exchange. Air in bronchus or trachea wouldn't do exchange
