Answer:

The 5' and 3' polarity restriction

Explanation:

Discontinuous replication is when synthesis of new DNA molecule takes place as a series of short fragments that will subsequently be joined together.

These fragments are called the Okazaki fragments.

DNA synthesis takes place from 3' to 5' end. However due to 5' and 3' polarity. The replication has to be discontinuous due to the synthesis happening backwards and okazaki fragments being formed.

abruzzese [7]

Answer: This is as a result of it covering more on the center part of the cell unlike when it is perpendicular.

Explanation: This is as a result of it covering more on the center part of the cell unlike when it is perpendicular. Cells in the primary visual cortex tends to responds to a particular direction of light. There are distinct inhibitory and excitatory regions and when the bar of light is moved over the cell you hear the firing rate (noise) which depends on the direction the light moves in. When the bar of light is set at an angle or perpendicular, the inhibitory receptive field is illuminated which slows the firing rate. when the bar of light is perpendicular, it leads to both the inhibitory and excitatory regions being illuminated which can sometimes result in their firing potentials canceling out each other, which can lead to no response in firing.
