1. Cell starts into mitosis phase of the cell cycle.
2. Helicase begins to break the hydrogen bonds between the nitrogen bases. (The double helix has to be unwound in order to expose the nucleotides)
3. DNA polymerase attach the free-floating nucleotides to the exposed nitrogen bases. (this allows a new DNA strand to be made on the existing one)
4. Free floating nucleotides pair up with exposed nitrogen bases (this is what really builds the new strand, based around the template strand)
5. Two new molecules of DNA are created
Statements:
Adenine
Cytosine (Car in the Garage, Apple in a Tree is a good trick to know how they pair)
DNA
Replication
Double helix
A hypothesis is considered scientific if it has something that can be supported or refuted through carefully crafted experimentation or observation
<u>Answer</u>: Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder that causes thick mucus secretions.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- <em>Cystic fibrosis</em> is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in a gene that makes a protein called CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator).
- The CFTR protein normally functions as a channel for transport of chloride ions in cells responsible for mucus production.
- A person suffering from cystic fibrosis produces abnormal CFTR protein or no CFTR protein at all.
- This is the reason that thick, sticky mucus is produced instead of the thin, watery kind.
Answer:
The phenomenon that explains the trend seen in the data is that the mosquitoes' evolution has led them to develop resistance to the compound.
Explanation:
This is a very common factor that we can see in insects. The effect of DDT on the species will have different levels of impact. One is going to be more vulnerable to the compound that the rest. However, after many times of exposition to the compound, a few survivors will develop resistance to the compound and their offspring is going to inherit that resistance. Making them increase the resistance over time.
Intertidal zone-Referred sometimes as foreshore,which is area above water at low tide and under water at high tide
