Answer:

The Lungs. The lungs play a mandatory role in the excretory system. Your lungs remove the carbon dioxide built up in your blood using specialized cells known as alveoli. Your lungs process the molecules into gas and when you breathe, the gas is ejected from your body.

Answer:

Because, by exhaling, they release (or excrete) the carbon dioxide that builds up in the blood, as a waste product of cellular respiration. It's a very important role, even if we often forget the lungs as part of the excretory system.

Which two statements are true for the leading strand in DNA?
melomori [17]

Answer: The correct options are statement first and fourth that is -

It is synthesized toward the replication fork and it is synthesized in the 5′ to 3′ direction.

Leading strand in DNA is the strand of new DNA being synthesized in the same direction where the replication fork is moving. The movement of replication fork allows the access of template for the new DNA.

The DNA synthesis is continuous in the leading strand. It is synthesized in the 5' to 3' as DNA synthesis always takes place in this direction. This is because dNTP ( deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate) provides free 3' OH group where new dNTP can be added by the enzyme DNA polymerase.

How did Hershey and Chase ""label"" viral DNA and viral protein so that they could be distinguished? Explain why they chose each
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

As DNA contain phosphorus in its structure in large amount, therefore, Harshey and Chase labeled DNA with radioactive phosphorus and because protein contains some amino acids which have sulfur so they labeled T2 bacteriophage protein with sulfur.

So after that they infected E.coli bacteria with radioactively labeled phages and after centrifugation, they have found that pellet which contains cells is showing the presence of radioactive phosphorus and supernatant which have T2 phage capsid protein showing the presence of radioactive sulfur.

Therefore by labeling viral protein and viral DNA they found that DNA is the genetic material not protein.
