Answer:

Explanation:

Semiconservative replication is one of the type of replication methods proposed to take place in the cell and has also been confirmed to be the type that actually takes place in the cell. Semiconservative replication involves the production of two copies (of which one is the parental strand which acts as template and the other is the newly synthesized strand) of the original DNA molecule. A leading strand is the newly synthesized strange running in the 5' to 3' direction, the template strand runs from the 3' to 5' direction while the lagging strand is the newly fragmentally synthesized strand oriented in such a way that its production runs in the 5' to 3' direction for each okazaki fragment. Its template strand runs in the 5' to 3' direction.

The cell copes with errors in replication either by performing the 3' to 5' exonuclease proofreading during replication or by utilizing the cell's DNA repair system.

A fox is a type of mammal that is related to dogs. How does a fox most likely respond to hot air temperatures in a way that ecto
sveta [45]

Answer:

By panting or breathing heavily.

Explanation:

<em>An ectothermic animal is one whose body temperature depends on the temperature of the external environment.</em>

The body of ectotherms regulates temperature depending on the temperature of the external environment where such animal finds itself.

Hence, when the temperature of the external environment rises as a result of hot air, the body of an ectotherm (that is homeothermic, that is, maintain a relatively constant body temperature irrespective of the temperature of the external environment) will adjust so as to keep its temperature relatively constant.

Dogs generally pant (breathe heavily) to bring their body temperature back to normal whenever it rises beyond normal due to rigorous physical activities or high external temperature.

<em>Hence, a fox will most likely pant in response to hot air temperature just like dogs.</em>

Which best describes an experiment?
AleksAgata [21]
A: In a lab a scientist measures the height of roses that received different fertilizers.

An experiment must include variables. The other three are just measurements, but since the scientist is varying the types of fertilizers used, this better describes an experiment. It is also done in a controlled environment (in a lab) which helps to eliminate other uncertainties.
