Reviewing Main ideas

1. Replication assures that every cell has a complete set of identical, genetic information and makes a copy of the DNA so it can be passed to the new cell. ... DNA polymerase binds the nucleotides together and forms new strands complementary to each template.

2. DNA is a double helix. So during replication, it unwinds and separates into 2 strands. 1 strand will be called the non-coding and the other will be called the coding strand.

The non-coding strand will be the template for the new one.

3. The DNA Polymerase detects if there is an error, it removes the incorrect nucleotide and replaces it with the correct one.

Critical Thinking

4. The main function of DNA polymerase is to synthesize DNA from deoxyribonucleotides, the building blocks of DNA. ... By contrast, RNA polymerases synthesize RNA from ribonucleotides from either RNA or DNA. When synthesizing new DNA, DNA polymerase can add free nucleotides only to the 3' end of the newly forming strand.

5. Why is it important that human chromosomes have many origins of replication? because cells need to be copied quickly to replace cells in our bodies that have died, having many origins of replication helps the process happen faster.

The words that are in bold are the words you should write down. You don't have to write the whole thing. The other words are just for a better understaning.

What would happen if introns were not removed during RNA processing?
Savatey [412]

Answer:

The protein would be incorrect and the protein might not function.

Explanation:

We know that introns carry information but introns not only carry information to build a protein. They have to be removed for the mRNA to encode a protein with the right protein sequence.

If the spliceosome fails to remove an intron, an mRNA with extra "junk" will be created in it. As a result, a wrong protein will be created during translation.

If a wrong protein sequence is created, it will hamper the whole translation process. The protein won't function properly.

Name the form of nitrogen which higher plants use​
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Nitrate

Nitrate is the form of nitrogen most used by plants for growth and development. Nitrate is the form that can most easily be lost to groundwater. Ammonium taken in by plants is used directly in proteins. This form is not lost as easily from the soil.
