In DNA replication in bacteria, the enzyme DNA polymerase III (abbreviated DNA pol III) adds nucleotides to a template strand of

DNA. But DNA pol III cannot start a new strand from scratch. Instead, a primer must pair with the template strand, and DNA pol III then adds nucleotides to the primer, complementary to the template strand. Each of the four images below shows a strand of template DNA (dark blue) with an RNA primer (red) to which DNA pol III will add nucleotides.

Answer:

In which image will adenine (A) be the next nucleotide to be added to the primer?

T, CG, GC, CG, A

**In the example above, DNA pol III would add an adenine nucleotide to the 3' end of the primer, where the template strand has thymine as the next available base. You can tell which end is the 3' end by the presence of a hydroxyl (-OH) group.

The structure of DNA polymerase III is such that it can only add new nucleotides to the 3' end of a primer or growing DNA strand (as shown here). This is because the phosphate group at the 5' end of the new strand and the 3' -OH group on the nucleoside triphosphate will not both fit in the active site of the polymerase.

3 Which statement best describes a cause and its effect that occurs during the process of muscle contraction? A. The release of
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:A. The release of calcium ions causes myosin and actin to attach to each other.

The contraction of skeletal muscles takes place by induction of a nerve impulse, which produces a movement and the interaction of the filaments containing proteins named as actin and myosin. This interaction of filaments is regulated by proteins  called tropomyosin and troponin present on the actin filaments. The motor nerve causes the depolarization of the muscle membrane sarcolemma. This triggers the sarcoplasmic reticulum to release calcium ions. This calcium binds to troponin and thus allows the tropomyosine strand on the actin filament to displace so that the part of the actin where myosine head needs to be attached remain uncovered. Binding of the actin myosine filament results in contraction.

Hence, the release of calcium ions causes myosin and actin to attach to each other causes muscle contraction.

I need help ASAP please
Orlov [11]

I believe your Answer would be:

A: Sister Chromatids.

Explanation:

A sister chromatid refers to the identical copies (chromatids) formed by the DNA replication of a chromosome, with both copies joined together by a common centromere. In other words, a sister chromatid may also be said to be 'one-half' of the duplicated chromosome.

Hope I helped, if so may I get brainliest and a thanks?

Thank you, Have a good day! =)

Which type of oscillation would most likely produce an electromagnetic wave?
Art [367]
Electromagnetic waves are waves propagated by simultaneous periodic variations of electric and magnetic field intensity that include radio waves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays.

Damped oscillation means that there is some force that causes the oscillation to become smaller and smaller over time. For example, the pendulum exhibits an oscillation motion. Over time, the swinging of pendulum would come to a stop, unless a force is acted on it.

Forced oscillation means that an outside force causes an object to oscillate at a certain frequency. For instance, if you decide to swing the pendulum so that it won't stop from swinging, the action is called forced oscillation.

On the other hand, resonance oscillation refers to the increase in an amplitude of oscillation of an electric or mechanical system exposed to a periodic force whose frequency is equal or very close to the natural undamped frequency of the system.

Among the three types of oscillation, resonance is most likely to produce an electromagnetic wave.
