Answer:

Adenine; Thymine

Explanation:

  • The origin of replication in E.coli is called the oriC
  • This region is rich in Adenine and Thymine bases because their base stacking interactions are weaker than those of Cytosine and Guanine.
  • Between A and T bases there are only 2 hydrogen bonds (not a very strong interaction so requires less energy to separate) while between C and G bases there are 3 hydrogen bonds (strong interaction thus requires more energy to separate)
  • The oriC is a region which needs to be separated when replication occurs. It is thus a region which requires easy separation with as little energy as possible so that proteins like DnaA can bind.

The intermediate filaments of a neuron are also called __________
grigory [225]

answer: Neuro filaments

explanation:

Neurofilaments (NF) are intermediate filaments found in the cytoplasm of neurons. Together with microtubules and microfilaments, they form the neuronalcytoskeleton. They are believed to function primarily to provide structural support for axons and to regulate axon diameter, which influences nerve conduction velocity.
