<span>I think the pKa for acetic acid is about 4.74. Therefore Acetic acid/acetate buffer will work best at 4.74 +/- 1 pH unit and so the pH 8 is far removed from that. Hence it would not buffer at that pH at all.</span>

What important function is happening in the S phase?
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The answer is D. Synthesizing DNA.

Explanation:

The synthesis (S) phase of the cell cycle is of critical importance to precisely replicating the genomic information encoded in the nucleus of the cell.

The major work of the S phase of the cell cycle is replicating the entire complement of DNA. To do this, the cell activates pre-replication complexes to make replication origins. These are simply areas of the DNA where replication will begin.

After the three days, what happens in each test tube? why? what is necessary for rust to occur? how does this activity demonstra
Finger [1]
The situation would be that, in a sealed tube,  there are 3 to 4 nails inside and a certain amount of calcium chloride was added. After three days, there will be no changes to be observed in the first tube since the oxygen is not enough to initiate a change and there is no presence of water. For the second test, the same situation is made but boiling water was filled in the tube. For this, no changes would still be observed since there is no moisture. For the last test, the same situation as the first but it is filled halfway with water. After 3 days, rust would be observed on the nails. In order for rust to happen, there should be water and oxygen. The oxygen in the early atmosphere of the Earth would react with iron present in the oceans thus producing iron ores.

Many genetic technologies involve the transferring of genes from one organism to another. For example, a gene in human DNA codes
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

The universality of genetic code.

Explanation:

The DNA is a molecule made up from 4 different nucleotides (A, T, C or G). The sequence in which these nucleotides are ordered constitute a code that gives a cell instructions to produce a specific protein. This is called the genetic code.

Every three nucleotides code for a specific amino acid. For example, ACG codes for Arginine, CUC codes for Proline, and so on.

The genetic code is universal. This means that in all living organisms, a particular sequence of three nucleotides will code for the same amino acid. This property guarantees that the human gene that codes for human insulin will also code for human insulin in bacteria.
