Which statement CORRECTLY describes why the DNA synthesis is discontinuous on one template strand while continuous on the other?

(Select all that apply.) A. It is due to the semiconservative nature of DNA replication. B. It is due to the nature of the DNA polymerase which can only add new nucleotide at the 3' end. C. It is due to difficulty in unwinding the DNA template for replication. D. It is due to antiparallel nature of the DNA molecule. E. It is due to the fact that the DNA polymerase is not active enough.

The DNA synthesis process is continuous on one strand while discontinuous on the other because of the fact that the DNA polymerase can add new nucleotides to the newly replicated strand only at the 3'end. The two strands of the DNA are anti-parallel, and so during the process of replication the DNA polymerase only works by adding new nucleotide from the 3' end. This leads to the synthesis of a continuous strand on one template stand, and the formation of the okazaki fragments on the another.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option B and Option D'.

Answer:

number 1 answer is 3.

number 2 energy is flowing upwards. ex grasshopper eats the grass, rat or whatever that is eats the grasshopper, and the hawk eats the rat. energy is going up each trophic level.

number 3. if the grass became polluted, then animals would get pollution in their bodies and at some point would die. eventually the grass would die too. primary consumers such as mouse, rabbit, grasshopper/snails would accumulate the most pollution because they directly eat the grass. whatever that is in the grass goes straight into their bodies.

Summarize the similarities and differences of any two phases of mitosis
juin [17]

<span>Mitosis, simply put, is the division of the nucleus of a cell. It is the phase in the cycle of a cell in which the two chromosomes in a cell divide and separate in a nucleus of their own. These chromosomes are completely identical. As a result of mitosis, two identical cells are formed and are known as daughter cells. This process copies and transfers DNA into both the cells that are formed as a result of Mitosis.</span>

The resulting compounds of glycolysis can undergo other ____________ to produce more atp in the cell.
Gnom [1K]

The resulting compounds of glycolysis can undergo other Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to produce more ATP in the cell.

<h3>What is glycolysis?</h3>

Glycolysis is a process in which glucose is partially broken down by cells in enzyme reactions that do not need oxygen.

Glycolysis is one method that cells use to produce energy.

<h3>Resulting compounds of glycolysis</h3>

During glycolysis, glucose ultimately breaks down into pyruvate and energy.

Thus, the resulting compounds of glycolysis can undergo other Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to produce more ATP in the cell.
