As a cell prepares to divide during the cell cycle, DNA replication must take place. During the S-phase, DNA strands unwind and

replication occurs along the 2 separated strands. What is the main purpose of DNA replication?
a. During DNA replication, enzymes unwind DNA to provide a template for making identical DNA strands.

b. During DNA replication, enzymes are made which are important in maintaining homeostasis.

C. During DNA replication, copies of DNA are made so there is a continuous supply of DNA available for translation.

d. During DNA replication, a copy of RNA is made which is used as a code for protein synthesis.

Answer: a. During DNA replication, enzymes unwind DNA to provide a template for making identical DNA strands.

Explanation: The purpose of DNA replication is to produce genetically identical DNA molecules.

Replication is the process of copying a double-stranded DNA molecule into two identical daughter DNA. The enzyme known as helicase unwinds the DNA so that each strand will serve as a template for the synthesis of a complementary DNA strand. The. Two identical daughter DNA produced each contains one parent DNA strand and one new complementary strand.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Here are the answers:

Soaking the foot in warm water<span>
Applying antibiotic ointment

<span>In an ingrown nail, the nail sliver penetrates the skin, resulting in inflammation that may hinder ambulation and interfere with activities of daily living. After the nail sliver is removed by a podiatrist, treatment involves soaking the foot in warm water and applying antibiotic ointment. Application of an ice pack is suitable for plantar fasciitis rather than an ingrown toenail. Treatment of secondary infection is advised in hypertrophic ungual labium, which results from an untreated ingrown nail. The application of padding and lanolin creams is recommended for calluses.</span></span>

The middle section that talks about active and passive transport
inysia [295]

Answer:

Diffusion- Passive transport

energy required- Active transport

exocytosis- Active transport

osmosis- Passive transport

endocytosis- Active transport

energy not required- Passive transport

facilitated diffusion- Passive transport

Protein pumps- Active transport

Explanation:

Passive transport can be described as the transport of particles along the concentration gradient i.e from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. This process does not require energy. For example, the phenomenon of osmosis

Active transport can be described as the transport of particles against the concentration gradient i.e from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration. This process requires energy. For example, exocytosis
