3’ OH group

DNA polymerase is responsible for synthesis of DNA and it is one of the key enzymes in DNA replication. They function by adding nucleotide one by one to the growing DNA by incorporating only those that are complementary to the template. However, DNA polymerase synthesizes DNA in the 5’ to 3’ direction by adding dNTP to the 3’ OH group of the growing chain.

Here are some key features of DNA polymerases:<span>They can only add nucleotides to the 3 end of a DNA strandThey can't start making a DNA chain from scratch but require a pre-existing chain or short stretch of nucleotides called a primerThey check their work, removing the vast majority of "wrong" nucleotides that are accidentally added to the chain</span>

kupik [55]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is B) Scientific paradigm</em>

Explanation:

Options for the question have not been given. They are as follows:

A. dinoflagellates.

B. Choanoflagellida.

C. Stramenopiles.

D. euglenoids.

E. foraminifera.

Answer:

C. Stramenopiles

Explanation:

Stramenopiles or heterokonts are a part of Chromista kingdom. They comprise of both unicellular and multicellular protists. They are characterized by presence of two dissimilar flagella in the motile life cycle stage. Their chloroplast is also surrounded by four membranes which indicates origin from symbiotic relationship. They include many classes like diatoms, golden algae and brown algae. Brown algae belongs to the class Phaeophyceae. They are marine multicellular algae and are commonly known as seaweeds.
