In eukaryotes, <em>replication takes place in the nucleus</em> as prokaryotes do not have a true nucleus and <em>replication takes place in the cytoplasm</em>. The nucleus of the eukaryotes is the location where genetic material (DNA) is found; in prokaryotes, the genetic material is condensed in the cytoplasm called the nucleoid. There are multiple replication forks or <em>multiple origins of replication </em>in eukaryotes in contrast to prokaryotes which only has <em>one origin of replication. </em>Lastly, replication in eukaryotes <em>occurs at multiple points along the chromosome; </em>in contrast with prokaryotes where it <em>occurs at just one point on the chromosome.</em>

Prokaryotes

The DNA molecule has only one origin of replication.

They lack a nucleus. The DNA replication takes place in the cytoplasm.

Replication happens at only a single point in each chromosome.

Eukaryotes

The DNA molecule unwinds at multiple locations. The DNA molecule has several origins of replication in each chromosome.

DNA is contained in the nucleus, so DNA replication occurs in the nucleus.

Each chromosome replicates as a section. Replication occurs simultaneously at several locations across the length of the chromosome.

The Energetics of Coupled Transport
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Explanation:

A. False - A symporter system requires that one of the molecules to be transported using passive transport.

B. True - The Na+ will move down the established concentration gradient releasing energy to facilitate movement of sucrose against its concentration gradient. This is known as secondary active transport.

C.  False -  sucrose moves through ion channels not by diffusion to better control its movement across the membrane.

D. True - Movement of molecules against their concentration gradient thus requiring energy input is known as active transport.

E. False - One of the molecules needs to be moving against its concentration gradient.

F. False - A Uniporter system allows the binding and transport of a single molecule at a time. A symporter allows simultaneous binding and transport of Na+ and sucrose molecules.

Which of the following best explains how a dog is able to ingest and digest food, and remove waste
Viktor [21]

Answer:

1st is correct

Explanation:

At its simplest, a dog's digestive system is a long tunnel that runs from their mouth to the anus. Food goes in at the mouth and travels through this tube and at various stages is broken down and either absorbed into the body or excreted as waste at the anus.

Exercise scientists at an Olympic training center want to monitor athletes to determine at what point their muscles are function
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The correct answer is option c, that is, lactic acid.

Explanation:

One can determine the anaerobic function of muscles by observing the levels of lactic acid buildup in muscles. The production of lactic acid in muscles takes place by the process of anaerobic respiration. At the time of rigorous training or exercise, one requires more amount of energy for a short burst of time.  

As oxygen is already used for higher purposes in the body, the levels of oxygen get reduced for performing any more activities. Thus, in order to generate more energy the process of anaerobic respiration takes place. Anaerobic respiration is the form of respiration that takes place in the absence of oxygen. In the process, one molecule of glucose gets transformed into two molecules of lactic acid, which gets accumulated in the muscles. This production of lactic acid provides a quick form of energy, which is utilized at the time of intense training and thus, one can check the anaerobic functioning of the muscles by observing the levels of lactic acid in the muscles.

How amphibians regulate their body temperature?
Allushta [10]
Frog temperature. Frogs are ectotherms, this means they gettheir heat from external sources. They are sometimes called 'cold blooded', but in fact they do not have cold blood, it is justregulated by their environment. In comparison, humans are endotherms and can maintain their body temperature at about 37°C.
