The enzyme DNA ligase chemically bonds together two DNA strands and removes nicks in a DNA duplex.

This enzyme is catalyzer for the formation of a phosphodiester bonds. Three major processes in which DNA ligases are involved are:

• DNA replication- after the RNA primers are removed, the remained nicks are replaced by the enzyme DNA ligase

• DNA repair-usually single-strand breaks are repaired by DNA ligase and  complementary strand of the double helix is used as a template

• Recombination of DNA in experiments- in gene cloning, DNA ligase joins DNA molecules together to form recombinant DNA.

In summer squash, white fruit color (W) is dominant over yellow fruit color (w) and disk shaped fruit (D) is dominant over spher
dangina [55]

Answer:

Genotypic ratio = 16 WwDd: 0

Phenotypic ratio = 16 white, disk shaped fruit : 0 yellow, sphere shaped fruit

Explanation:

This question involves two different genes coding for fruit color and fruit shape respectively. The allele for white fruit color (W) is dominant over yellow fruit color (w) and disk shaped fruit (D) is dominant over sphere-shaped fruit (d).

According to this question, If a squash plant pure-breeding for white, disk shaped fruit (WWDD) is crossed with a plant pure breeding for yellow, sphere shaped fruit (wwdd), the following gametes will be produced by each GAMETE:

WWDD - WD, WD, WD, WD

wwdd - wd, wd, wd, wd

Using these gametes in a punnet square, all of the offsprings will have genotype WwDd, which is phenotypically white and disk shaped fruit.

The genotypic ratio is 4 WwDd: 0

The phenotypic ratio is 16 white, disk shaped fruit : 0 yellow, sphere shaped fruit.

Several experiments were required to demonstrate how traits are inherited. Which scientist or team of scientists first demonstra
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Frederick Griffith was the first scientist who discovered that cell contains some components that can be transferred to another cell and cause a permanent change(transformation) in the new cell.

To prove this he performed an experiment in which he took two strains of <em>Streptococcus pneumoniae</em> which contain one rough strain and one smooth strain. Rough strain was non-virulent strain and smooth strain was virulent strain.

So he injected smooth and rough strain in mice and saw that mice die when virulent strain is injected and survive when non-virulent strain is injected. Then he injected heat killed virulent strain in which mice survived.

Then he added remain of heat killed bacteria with live smooth strain of bacteria and infected the mice and saw that the mice was killed by non-virulent smooth strain of streptococcus.

After this experiment he concluded that cells contain some component later identified as DNA which can be transferred to new population of cells and transform these new cells.

Select the correct statement about chemical energy, a term used by biologists to refer to potential energy available for release
vekshin1

Answer:

A photosynthetic cell within a plant leaf produces chemical energy, stored within glucose molecules.

Explanation:

The energy captured from sunlight by Photosystems in chlorophyll is used to split a water molecule and reduce carbon dioxide to carbohydrates. This energy from sunlight is therefore stored in the chemical bonds of the glucose molecules. It is thereafter harnessed during cellular respiration when the chemical bonds of glucose are broken and the energy transferred to make ATP molecules.
