The choices are as follows:

<span>A) is a primitive form of sexual reproduction.
B) produces daughter colonies with genetic differences.
C) is a form of asexual reproduction that produces offspring identical to the mother colony.
D) is a form of sexual reproduction but does not produce any differences in the daughter colonies.

I believe option C is the answer. </span>This type of reproduction  is a form of asexual reproduction that produces offspring identical to the mother colony.

Hope this answers the question.

Answer: Asexual reproduction

Asexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction in which a single parent is involved to produce the offsprings. This occurs in simple organisms. This does not requires formation of gametes like sexual reproduction. The offsprings are identical to the parent organism. Here, mother colony of protists, volvox gives birth to daughter as only single parent is involved it is a asexual mode of reproduction.

A new DNA strand elongates only in the 5' to 3' direction because _____.
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

d. DNA polymerase begins adding nucleotides at the 5' end of the template

Explanation:

Polymerase DNA always works in one direction, synthesizing the new 5' to 3' oriented chains and adding nucleotides to the 3' end of a new synthesis chain by forming phosphodiester bonds between the phosphate of a nucleotide and the sugar of the anterior nucleotide.  

Because DNA polymerase only acts in a 5' to 3' direction, replication along a chain, the leading chain, occurs continuously. The synthesis of the opposite chain, the delayed chain, occurs discontinuously because the DNA polymerase must wait for the replication fork to open. Over the delayed chain, short segments of DNA called Okazaki fragments (named after Reiji and Tsuneko Okazaki, the scientists who discovered these fragments) are synthesized as polymerase DNA works out of the replication fork. Ligase DNA catalyzes the covalent bonds between Okazaki fragments in the delayed chain to ensure there are no gaps in the phosphodiester skeleton. Finally, the first ones are removed and these gaps are filled by the DNA polymerase.

arlik [135]

Answer:

a. Fiber

Explanation:

The major nutrients required by humans in food are carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Our food also has dietary fibers and water. Dietary fibers or fibers are also known as roughage. Fibers are present mainly in plant products such as whole grains, pulses, fruits and vegetables. Fibers only add bulk and do not provide any nutrients to us. However, dietary fibers help the body get rid of undigested food.
