A substance that releases hydroxyl ions in water is a base. Acids on the other hand release hydrogen ions when dissolved in water, while salts release sodium. To define acids and bases the Arrhenius definition is used by scientists---this describes what substances are produce by each type of solutions. Under the Arrhenius definition salt and water can be used to predict the result of the neutralization of an acid with a base.

In Chemistry, Bronsted-Lowry definition has superseded the Arrehenius definition.

The syntenic genes A and Z are linked. A cross between two parents, AAZZ and aazz, produces F1 progeny with the AaZz genotype. W
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

The possible arrangements of alleles on the F1 progeny's chromosomes will be AZ/Az or aZ/az

Explanation:

The genotype of F1 progeny  is AaZz

The allele pair of gametes would contain one allele for characteristic represented by "A or a" and other allele for characteristic represented by Z or z"

Thus, total four allele pairs will be formed.

First allele pair would be - AZ

Second allele pair would be - Az

Third allele pair would be - aZ

Fourth allele pair would be - az

Hence, the possible arrangements of alleles on the F1 progeny's chromosomes will be AZ/Az or aZ/az

Ligases are enzymes that link two dna fragments together. Suppose a bacterium develops a mutation in the ligase gene needed for
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Cell will not replicate because of incomplete DNA replication.

Explanation:

DNA replication is crucial for reproduction/replication of any organism as it involves the duplication of genetic material. So if an organism is unable to perform proper DNA replication it would not be able to reproduce.

DNA polymerase is the enzyme that synthesize the new DNA strand in DNA replication. DNA polymerase can synthesize a strand only in 5'→3' direction. Both of the strands of DNA molecules are opposite in direction. So one strand is synthesized continuously called as leading strand while the other strand is synthesized in form of okazaki fragments called as lagging strand.

The okazaki fragments are joined together by the enzyme ligase. So if Ligase enzyme is absent in bacteria it would not be able to synthesize the lagging strand of DNA and thus could not be able to produce a replica of DNA. And if there is No replication of DNA then No replication of cell would occur.
