A problem known as the end-replication problem (telomere problem) exists in eukaryotic chromosomes wherein the chromosomes short

en with each round of DNA replication. Select the statements that best explain why the end-replication problem exists in eukaryotic chromosomes​ (select all statements that apply)
1)​ The RNA primer is removed in a 3' to 5' direction
2) DNA polymerase requires a primer for DNA synthesis
3) ​DNA ligase links the 5' OH group of one fragment to the 3' phosphate group of an adjacent fragment
4) The lagging strand is synthesized from the 3' end to the 5' end
5) DNA polymerase synthesizes DNA from the phosphate end to the hydroxyl end

<h2>2) and 5) are correct </h2>

Explanation:

  • Telomere represents linear ends of eukaryotic chromosome and consists of repeated nucleotides, protects terminal end of chromosomes from exonucleases and other damaging chemicals and also maintain divisional capacity of cells
  • Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein complex consisting of RNA and several proteins, where RNA component of telomerase act as template and protein component has reverse transcriptase activity that synthesize DNA using RNA as a template
  • Telomerase only extends 3' end of parental strand
  • Extension and translocation repeats several times
  • At telomeric region 3' end of one end is over-hanged on 5' end of another strand
  • Over-hanged 3' end create a loop called T loop which mask the end of DNA strand

Answer:

<h2>2 and 5</h2>

Explanation:

DNA replication occurs in S phase of cell cycle, is the process of DNA duplication in which one molecule of DNA is copied into two molecules. DNA is replicated by DNA polymerase enzyme which requires primer for initiation of replication. In leading strand, only one primer is required at the time of initiation, but for lagging strand, lots of primers are required, one at each okazaki fragment.

Telomere become short at each cell division because DNA polymerase requires a primer for DNA synthesis  and DNA polymerase synthesizes DNA from the phosphate end to the hydroxyl end both the conditions are not filled at the telomeres.

The medulla is to the control of ________ as the cerebellum is to the control of ________.
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

Answer; breathing, walking.

Explanation:

The location of the medulla is in the brainstem, which is found infront of the cerebellum.  It controls certain autonomic nervous system responses such as digestion, sneezing and breathing among others. It is regarded as the centre for respiration and circulation.

Cerebellum is located under the cerebellum coordinates movements like muscle movement , speech and posture and balancing.

M+ is an unknown metal cation with a +1 charge. A student dissolves the chloride of the unknown metal, MCl, in enough water to m
Simora [160]

Looks like you're missing an answer choice. I have this question on my practice test for AP Chemistry, the correct answer would be KCl.

mass AgCl = 2.23 - 0.80 = 1.43g AgCl

1.43g AgCl / 143g/mol AgCl = 0.01 moles AgCl

- AgCl has a mole ratio of 1:1 so:

     moles Ag+ = moles Cl-, therefore Ag+ has 0.01 moles and Cl- has 0.01 moles

- MCl also has a 1:1 ration

      moles Cl- = moles M+

      - 0.01 moles of M+ and Cl-

0.01 Cl- = x/35.45 = 0.3545g Cl-

mass MCl = 0.74g

0.74g MCl - 0.3545g Cl- = 0.3955g M+

0.3955g M+/x =0.010 mol M+

x= 39.55g M+

K+ has a molar mass of approximately 39.10

Therefore KCl is your answer

Answer:

The correct answer is -

a) A plant cell B animal cell

b) nucleus

C) Vacuole

Explanation:

In plant cells, there is a large vacant space present in the center which is actually a vacuole that plays role in various types such as nutrients storage, water balance. In plant cells, a dense round structure present at one side of the cell known as the nucleus.

In animal cells, the vacuoles are absent or very small however the round dense structure of the nucleus is present in the center of the cell. Thus, the correct answer is -

a) A plant cell B animal cell

b) nucleus

C) Vacuole

Why is the reduction in chromosomes number important in meiosis?
valkas [14]

Explanation:

Because meiosis creates cells that are destined to become gametes (or reproductive cells), this reduction in chromosome number is critical — without it, the union of two gametes during fertilization would result in offspring with twice the normal number of chromosomes.
