Biology

Arturiano [62]4 years ago
4 0
Approximately 50% of human genome is composed of repetitive sequences. It contains approximately 3 billion of these base pairs that reside with 23 pairs of chromosome within the nucleus or our cells or called nucleotides. Genes in the genomes of invertebrates such as Drosophila is not like the human genes because the human genes contain more and larger introns than the genes in the genomes. The human genes are larger than the genes in the genomes. The genome sequence is ~99.9% similar in individuals of all nationalities. Complete set of deoxyribonucleic acid of a single cell of an organism or sequence for humans (Homo sapiens) is called Genome. It includes both protein-coding deoxyribonucleic acid genes and noncoding deoxyribonucleic acid.

Which statement about DNA replication is true?
Talja [164]

Answer:

D. Prokaryotes only have one origin of replication to initiate replication.

Explanation:

The DNA of prokaryotes is smaller than that of eukaryotes. So, prokaryotes have only one origin of replication. Origin of replication is the region of DNA where the process of DNA replication starts. The helicases recognize and bind to the origin of replication to start the melting of DNA double helix for replication.

DNA replication starts at the single origin of replication and stops at termination in prokaryotes.

How do scientists plan to use copy number variants and identical twins to determine the roots of diseases? In your response, use
andrezito [222]

Identical genes have the same genetic material and the same genes. So if they both have a disease it's likely that it's genetic.
