Answer:

The correct answer will be-

1. Mobile elemests- LINEs and SINEs

2. Exons

3. Non-coding RNA genes

4. Introns

5. Repetitive DNA sequence

Explanation:

The human genome represents the total nucleic acids present in the Homo sapiens packaged in 23 chromosome pairs and contains 3 billion DNA base pairs.

The human genome comprises of protein-coding genes and non-protein-coding genes. The protein-coding sequence accounts for only a very small proportion that is 1.5% whereas the rest non-coding sequence accounts for 98.5%.

The non-coding sequence includes the Non-coding RNA genes( microRNA, small nuclear RNA), Introns which accounts for 26%, Repetitive DAN sequence (50%), mobile elements like LINEs and SINEs and exons.

Thus, Mobile elements- LINEs and SINEs, Exons, Non-coding RNA genes, Introns and Repetitive DNA sequence are the correct answers.

What would happen if plants could not produce glucose.

Serggg [28]

A plant that is unable to produce glucose will likely die.

<h3>WHAT IS PHOTOSYNTHESIS?</h3>

Photosynthesis is the process whereby green plants obtain their food using energy from sunlight.

The food molecules are in the form of an organic compound called glucose. The glucose is the source of energy for living cells.

This means that if a plant cell is unable to produce glucose, the plant will likely die because there is no source of energy for metabolic activities.

What property of the DNA molecule explains the necessity for Okazaki fragments? DNA is antiparallel. DNA is a linear molecule. D

Arada [10]

Answer:DNA is antiparallel.

Explanation: DNA is a double stranded helix in which the two strands are antiparallel. Being antiparallel means that as one strand runs from 5'->3' direction, the other strand runs from 3'->5' direction. During DNA each of the two strands serves as a template for a new complementary strand. The synthesis of a new DNA strand is always in the 5'->3' direction, therefore one strand is synthesized continuously in the direction of the replication fork while the other strand is synthesized discontinuously in the direction opposite to the replication fork in short fragments called the Okazaki fragments. The strand that is synthesized continuously is called the leading strand while the strand that is synthesized discontinuously in Okazaki fragments is called the lagging strand.
