It seems to either be homeostasis so the snake may regulate its state of being like how a person will take off their coat when it gets too warm or growth where the snake sheds its skin to prepare for growth. From what I can tell, the answer can't be excretion, reproduction, or nutrition. As the skin, gave no initial nutritional value so that eliminates excretion and nutrition. The snake isn't giving birth to other snakes during this process so that eliminates Reproduction.

What is the function of helicase in dna replication? see concept 16.2 (page 322)?
Salsk061 [2.6K]
The function of Helicase in the process of DNA replication is to untwist the double helix and separating the two DNA strands. This action of helicase creates the replication forks and replication bubbles where the process of replication is initiated. Their main role is the separation of double-stranded DNA into single strands allowing each strand to be copied during the process of replication. It may also function in other cellular processes where the double-stranded DNA must be separated, including transcription and repair. <span />
