What are the steps of DNA Replication in order?

Biology
1 answer:
slega [8]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

1) The enzyme helicase catalyses the unwinding of the two DNA strands by disrupting the hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs.

2) Single-stranded binding proteins attach to the DNA strands to stabilise them and prevent them from joining back together.

3) The enzyme primase catalyses the addition of a short primer consisting of RNA nulceotides to the DNA strand. This serves as an 'anchor' DNA polymerase to initiate replication.

4) The enzyme DNA polymerase synthesizes a new DNA strand by incorporating DNA nucleotides complementary to the existing strand. DNA polymerase activity only occurs in the 5' ---> 3' direction.

5) The enzyme ligase catalyses the formation of hydrogen bonds between the two new pairs of DNA strands, and seals any breakages in the sugar-phosphate backbone.

The disease bullous pemphigoid results in the destruction of proteins within the basement membrane that holds the epidermis and
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
This would directly affect the epidermis because blisters will develop within the surface of the skin. Having blisters on the epidermis will decrease the function of the skin to be an effective barrier to disease. This is because blisters are open wounds that are prone to infection. As infection passes through these openings, it will affect the dermis and the other layers of the skin. Bullae is actually an auto-immune skin disease.

What do you think the odds were that two children would turn out exactly alike ​
Anna007 [38]

No 2 people in the world are "exactly alike", so the odds would be 0% chance.    Twins, might be closer in alike-ness, but they still aren't "exactly alike".   Hope this answered your question.
