Answer:

During DNA replication, the leading strand is synthesized in the 5' to 3' direction. The strand that runs away from the replication fork is synthesized in Fragments because DNA polymerase cannot synthesize in the 3’ to 5’ direction.

Explanation:

A replication fork has one strand called the leading strand, it is synthesized continuously from a single primer on the leading strand template and grows in 5'-3' direction.
The leading strand grows in the same direction in which the replication fork grows.
The other strand is the lagging strand that is unveiled by the growing replication fork. It proceeds in the direction opposite to the movement of growing replication fork.
The lagging strand is synthesized discontinuously because the DNA polymerase can add nucleotides only to the 3' end of a primer.
These short pieces of synthesized DNA are okazaki fragments.Okazaki fragments are joined later by ligase.

Taxonomy is the science of naming and classifying organisms based on structural comparisons and genetic evidence.

Taxonomy is the science of finding, describing, classifying and naming biological organisms (plants, animals and microorganisms) based on shared characteristics and genetic evidence. Organisms are arranged into taxonomic ranks, and groups of a certain rank can be combined to form a higher rank, thereby forming taxonomic hierarchy. The main ranks that are used in taxonomy currently are domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus and species.

Zolol [24]

Answer:

C) most of the muscle's energy is produced in mitochondria.

Explanation:

The activities such as running a marathon require aerobic endurance to allow prolonged and sustained muscle contraction for a longer duration (few hours) without fatigue. These activities rely on the production of ATPs in mitochondria through the process of anaerobic cellular respiration.

The process of aerobic cellular respiration produces a large number of ATPs to sustain prolonged muscle contraction. Slow oxidative muscle fibers that contain a large amount of myoglobin and are rich in mitochondria are involved in such activities.
