What chemical force must be overcome in order to separate the two DNA strands during replication?

Biology
1 answer:
GarryVolchara [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Hydrogen bonds

Explanation:

DNA strands are held together by pair of complementary base pairs with Purines; Adenine and Guanine pairing with Pyrimidine: cytosine and Thymine;therefore Adenine pairs with Thymine,and Cytosine with Guanine.Theses bases are held together by the hydrogen bonds.

Two hydrogen bonds are in A-T, and three between C-G.

The process of formation of  another DNA molecules from the parent template is called replication. Under this process the  parent  double DNA strands unwinds,and fresh nucleotide line on the parent strands serving as the template.

Thus new double DNA stands are formed with one back bone of alternate sugar  and phosphate containing the new DNA strands,while the other strands conserving the parents strands contains the old back bone of sugars alternated with phosphate.This is semi conservative replication because, one of the double stands is new and the other is from the original parent strand.

Other form of replication is called conservative replication in which an entirely new double strands is formed,different from the parent DNA.

It begins with  the the unwinding of the DNA strands by the activity of enzyme Helicase which breaks down the hydrogen bonds between bases.This is followed by  attachment of primer to the old strands, and the catalysis by Enzyme DNA polymerase which ensure that new nucleotide are attach in 3'-5' direction to form a new strands.

Answer:

Human diploid cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes. Because of independent assortment during meiosis I, there are 223, or 8.4 million possible gametes that may be created even if crossing over didn't occur.

---------------- is the finest material can be blasted more than 20 kilometers into the atmosphere and carried much farther down
Ghella [55]

Pyroclastic materials are classified according to their size, measured in milli meters: dust (less than 0.6 mm [0.02 inch]), ash (fragments between 0.6 and 2 mm [0.02 to 0.08 inch]), cinders (fragments between 2 and 64 mm [0.08 and 2.5 inches], also known as lapilli), blocks (angular fragments greater than 64 mm), and bombs (rounded fragments greater than 64 mm).

The fluid nature of a pyroclastic flow is maintained by the turbulence of its internal gases. Both the incandescent pyroclastic particles and the rolling clouds of dust that rise above them actively liberate more gas. The expansion of these gases accounts for the nearly frictionless character of the flow as well as its great mobility and destructive power.

Pyroclastic flow, in a volcanic eruption, a fluidized mixture of hot rock fragments, hot gases, and entrapped air that moves at high speed in thick, gray-to-black, turbulent clouds that hug the ground. The temperature of the volcanic gases can reach about 600 to 700 °C (1,100 to 1,300 °F). The velocity of a flow often exceeds 100 km (60 miles) per hour and may attain speeds as great as 160 km (100 miles) per hour.

Which ingredient is a food acid used to activate baking
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Honey

Explanation:

Technically it could be both, as they can both be acidic, but honey is lower on the pH scale, meaning it is more acidic and thus will have a larger chemical reaction with baking soda.

Explain the interaction that occurs between a t-helper lymphocyte and a b cell when the b cell is being induced to produce peanu
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

           According to Dr. Ray Schiling (member of the American Academy of Anti-aging medicine) about 1.5 million people suffer from peanut allergies. The seeds of peanut (<em>Arachis hypogea</em>) contain an array of allergens that can induce the production of IgE specific antibodies predisposed individuals. Ara1 and Ara2 are most common seed storage protein that cause allergy. Other allergen proteins such as Ara3 to Ara 17 have also been identified that cause allergy.  


Entry of peanut allergen into body

When peanut allergens enter the body of an individuals it leads to development of different symptoms like itchy skin, tingling sensation, nausea, runny nose and anaphylaxis.  

Allergic response

There are two subsets of T-cells Th1 and Th2. Both invoke different response to allergens. Th1 direct a non-allergic response while Th2 direct allergic response ranging from releasing of histamine to anaphylactic response. The presence of IL-12 cytokines direct a Th1 based, nonspecific response.  


Mechanism of allergic response (interaction between helper T cell and B cell)

Step 1.  

           When allergen enter to body they are encountered by B cells. Immunoglobulin receptors on the surface of B cells recognize antigen (Peanut allergens) and get attached, which are then internalized and processed. Within B cells the fragments of antigens combine with HLA class 2 proteins.  

Step 2

             HLA class 2 with antigen fragments (peanut allergens) then display on the surface of B cells.

Step 3

            Receptors on the surface of helper T cells recognizes the complex of HLA class 2 and antigen fragments (peanut allergen) and is activated to produce cytokines, which activate the B cells.  

Step 4

             B cell is activated by cytokines and begins clonal expansion. Some of the progeny become anti-body producing plasma cells while other become memory B cells.

What does not deliver deoxygenated blood to the heart?
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

Pulmonary veins

Explanation:

In the circulatory system, the heart is responsible for for pumping oxygenated blood throughout the body and deoxygenated blood to the heart.

Normally all veins carry deoxygenated blood. However the pulmonary vein is the only vein that carries oxygenated blood.

They carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart.

However the Superior and inferior vena cava are responsible for delivering deoxygenated blood to the heart.
