Telomeres are found at the end of chromosomes to protect
genes from reduction during replication
of chromosomes, especially during meiosis
or mitosis. They are composed of repetitive sequences
that do not code for protein. Telomeres become
reducted <span>especially due</span> to the inability of the lagging strand to be completely replicated to the end of the chromosome. However, while
the telomeres become shorted with every
replication, the telomeres are usually slightly elongated by telomerase reverse
transcriptase.
Answer:
d) passage of a solute against its concentration gradient
Explanation:
When a solute is transported against its concentration gradient, the cells use metabolic energy. To move a substance from the region of its lower concentration to that of its higher concentration, the energy of ATP hydrolysis is utilized. These types of transport mechanisms are called active transports. If ATP hydrolysis is inhibited in a cell, it would not be able to perform the uphill movement of solutes due to the lack of any source of energy to drive the process.
Replication - The action of copying or reproducing something.
DNA replication of producing two identical replicas of DNA from one original DNA molecule.
Transcription - First step to gene expression, in which a particular segment of DNA is copied into RNA (especially mRNA) by the enzyme RNA polymerase. Both DNA and RNA are nucleic acids, which use base pairs of nucleotides as a complementary language.
1.) Transcription involved both DNA and RNA, whilst replication only involves DNA.
2.) Replication uses two identical replicas of DNA, whilst transcription is copied.
Hope I helped.
I would say D it seem to be the likely choice but not a 100%
The answer is II.Sexual reproduction results in more diversity
