<span>The difference in synthesis of lagging strand compared to synthesis of the leading strand is D) Synthesis of the leading strand does not involve RNA primers and Okazaki fragments. DNA polymerase adds nucleotides at the 3' end toward the 5' end in the direction 3' to 5'. The free end of the lagging strand is 5' so DNA polymerase cannot start from that end. The replication of the lagging strands is discontinuous and it involves RNA primers and Okazaki fragments. Synthesis of the leading strand is under control of DNA polymerase.</span>

Is water and its properties important in homeostasis for humans ? explain.
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

yes its important because...

Explanation:

Water is an essential feature of homeostasis in an organism. Water increases the volume of blood, which affects blood pressure and heart rate. Water dissolves gases and allow for efficient exchange and transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide. Water can be excreted, so it carries toxins that have been made water-soluble out of the body.

At what point in cell division is a chromosome lost so that, after fertilization with a normal gamete, the result is a human zyg
malfutka [58]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-A

Explanation:

Chromosomal abnormalities are caused when the chromosome pair fails to disintegrate through a process called non-disjunction. The non-disjunction of chromosomes usually takes place at the anaphase I or II of meiosis I which involves the X and Y chromosomes.  

The abnormality observed with 45 chromosomes or reduction in one sex chromosome or 45, XO is caused when one X copy of a chromosome is completely absent in the cell.  

The cause for the loss of one chromosome is the non-disjunction during meiosis I.

Thus, option-A is the correct answer.
