<span>Cells need a source of energy, they get this energy by breaking down food molecules to release, the stored chemical energy.This process is called 'cellular respiration'. The process is happens in all the cells in our body. Oxygen is used to oxidize food, main oxidized food is sugar(glucose).</span><span>Jan 14, 2009</span>
This is the breathing process. Hope this helps.
Question: Which two statements are true for the leading strand in DNA?
It is synthesized toward the replication fork.
It is synthesized in the 3′ to 5′ direction.
It is synthesized away from the replication fork.
It is synthesized in the 5′ to 3′ direction.
Answer:
The two statements that are true for the leading strand in DNA are "it is synthesized toward the replication fork and it is synthesized in the 5′ to 3′ direction"
Explanation:
Leading strand in DNA is the strand of new DNA being synthesized in the same direction where the replication fork is moving. The movement of replication fork allows the access of template for the new DNA. The DNA synthesis is continuous in the leading strand. It is synthesized in the 5' to 3' as DNA synthesis always takes place in this direction. This is because dNTP ( deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate) provides free 3' OH group where new dNTP can be added by the enzyme DNA polymerase.
Explanation:
Carrier proteins are proteins that carry substances from one side of a biological membrane to the other.
