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.

Which of the following would most likely result in the greatest decrease in the rate of a chemical reaction? (1 point)
erma4kov [3.2K]
The option which would most likely result in the greatest decrease in the rate of a chemical reaction is adding an enzyme inhibitor to a reaction catalyzed by an enzyme.
Enzyme inhibitor is known for slowing down any processes, especially when it comes to chemical reactions, so I'd say A is the correct answer.

Which of the following is a true statement about lava that contains large amounts of dissolved gases? Lava that produces violent
anygoal [31]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The dissolved gases produce violent eruption as they escape. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Magma contains dissolved gases and these dissolved gases induce vapor <em>pressure on the magma.</em> The magma is able to remain in the dissolved state itself without erupting because this vapor pressure is less than the confining pressure of the <em>rock surrounding the magma. </em>

One the vapor pressure exceeds this confining pressure the dissolved gases begin to  expand and<em> forms small gas bubbles</em>.

The <em>density of these gas bubbles</em> called vesicles is less than the density of magma and thus naturally tries to push out. When the gas bubbles escape the magma is also pushed out. Thus greater <em>amount of dissolved gases result in violent eruptions. </em>

Eukaryotic genomes have gene sequences that can code for more than one polypeptide sequence because _____.
ipn [44]

Answer:

The  correct answer would be -A pre-mRNA becomes mRNA by cutting out different introns

Explanation:

During the process of the RNA splicing, pre-mRNA has several specific segments of sequence that are identified by the spliceosome and then removed from the pre-mRNA. Specific parts that are removed are known as introns and the parts that stuck to become mRNA are exons.

Gene sequences in the eukaryotic genome can code for more than one protein due to removing the different introns every time to become mRNA from pre mRNA.
