Answer:

The highest pressure exerted on the arterial walls during the cardiac cycle is known as __systolic pressure __________

Explanation:

The systolic pressure corresponds to the contraction phase in the cardiac cycle (thus the blood is pumped from the heart to the aorta and the pulmonary artery). It contains two phases: atrial systole and ventricular systole.

On the contrary, the relaxation phase of the cardiac cycle corresponds to the diastolic pressure.

gogolik [260]
The characteristics that most of the top hit sequences share are; They contain a ribosomal RNA (rRNA) sequence. Additionally, they contain a sequence of an internal transcribed spacer. The ribosome is a cellular machine found in all organism. It serves to convert the instructions found in messenger RNA into the chains of amino-acids that make up proteins. The ribosomes is responsible for the synthesis of proteins. Internal transcribed spacer refers to the spacer DNA situated between the small-subunit ribosomal RNA and large-subunit rRNA genes in the chromosome or the corresponding transcribed region in the polycistronic rRNA precursor transcript.

When a molecule absorbs a photon, one of its electrons is raised to the ______ state.
77julia77 [94]

The correct answer is: D) excited

A molecule is in an excited state when its energy level is higher than the ground state. That molecule stays in excited state for short time and then returns to a state with lower energy. This return to a lower energy level is described as decay and is the inverse process of excitation.

The transition from ground to excited state of an atom is possible if electrons gain energy that is higher than the difference in energies between the two energy orbits.

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-DNA polymerase can only add nucleotides to the free 3' end

Explanation:

DNA replication process produces the exact copy of DNA which requires various enzymes. The function of adding a nucleotide to the daughter strand is performed by the enzyme called DNA polymerase.

The DNA polymerase enzyme catalyses the process of DNA replication which requires energy provided by the dNTP. The enzyme adds new nucleotides at 3'-OH end of the DNA which favour the reaction energetically.  

Thus, the new DNA strand appears to be elongated in the 5' to 3' direction.

The twisted ladder shape of DNA
Grace [21]

Answer:

C. Double helix

Explanation:

The twisted ladder shape that DNA has can also be called a double helix.

It is in the shape of a helix, which is similar to a 3D spiral shape.

It is called a double helix because DNA is made up of two DNA helix strands that are intertwined.

So, C is the correct answer.
