Which enzyme is responsible for creating the covalent bonds that connect the sugar phosphate backbone of the new DNA molecules?

Biology

Answer:

The correct answer would be DNA ligase.

DNA ligase is the enzyme which catalyzes the formation of phosphodiester in DNA molecule.

It is used in replication as well as repair of the DNA.

During replication, it helps in joining the newly formed Okazaki fragments by catalyzing the formation of phosphodiester bond between the sugar-phosphate backbones of the fragments.

In DNA repair, it helps in sealing the nicks formed during the repair system such as nicks formed during nucleotide excision repair.

In molecular biology, DNA ligases are now used to produce recombinant DNA.

Enter a nuclear equation for the fusion of two h-2 atoms to form he-3 and one neutron. express your answer as a nuclear equation
aliya0001 [1]

The nuclear equation that represents the fusion of two H-2 atoms to form He-3 and one neutron is

\frac{2}{1} h + \frac{2}{1} h >  >  >  >  \frac{3}{2} he   +  \frac{1}{0} n

In a nuclear reaction the nuclides are represented with the chemical symbol preceded by a superscript that represents the mass number (number of protons plus neutrons) and a subscript that represents the atomic number (number of protons).

<h3>What is a Nuclear reaction ?</h3>

A nuclear reaction is a process in nuclear physics and nuclear chemistry where two nuclei or a nucleus and an outside subatomic particle meet to create one or more new nuclides. Consequently, at least one nuclide must change throughout a nuclear reaction.

What is the basic difference between simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion across a cell membrane? hints?
Licemer1 [7]

Simple diffusion is the process by which a substance moves across a cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Substances that move by simple diffusion are able to diffuse directly across the phospholipid bilayer of the cell membrane. These substances are generally small and neutral, as large or charged particles cannot cross the phospholipid bilayer. Some examples of molecules that move by simple diffusion are carbon dioxide and oxygen.  

Facilitated diffusion is the process by which a substance moves across a cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration with the aid of a membrane protein. Substances that move by facilitated diffusion are not able to diffuse directly across the phospholipid bilayer of the cell membrane. These substances are generally large and/or charged. They therefore travel through a protein channel in the cell membrane along their concentration gradient. Some examples of substances that can move by facilitated diffusion are glucose, sodium ions and chloride ions.  

The similarities between facilitated diffusion and simple diffusion are:  

They both involve the movement of a substance across a cell membrane along its concentration gradient (from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration).  

They are both examples of passive transport, as neither requires energy from the cell to move the substance across the membrane.

Proteins around which the long, linear strands of DNA are wrapped; they serve to keep the DNA untangled and to enable an orderly
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

The correct answer is- Histone

Explanation:

DNA is approximately 2.2 m long thread which has to be adjusted in a microscopic nucleus so DNA must be in a supercoiled form to be present in the nucleus and this supercoiling of DNA is done on histone protein.

Histone protein is a positively charged protein that is made up of eight proteins so it is called histone octamer. Each histone has 2 copies of each protein that is H2A, H2B, H3, and H4.

DNA is negatively charged and histone protein is positively charged therefore DNA wraps around histone protein which causes the packaging of DNA. So the correct answer is histone protein.
