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.

lys-0071 [83]

Answer: Precise measurements are important for Scientific Accuracy in order to get correct results

Explanation:

Precision is how close the Agreement is between repeated measurements under the same conditions. For example, if a measured value 36.7cm has three digits, or significant figures. Significant figures indicate the precision of a measuring tool that was used to measure a value

Accuracy is how close a measurement is to the correct value for that measurement.

When taking scientific measurements it is very important to be both precise and accurate. Bad equipment, human error can give inaccurate results.

How might retaining too much heat be a disadvantage to an organism?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

<u>Too much heat can disrupt subcellular structures such as membrane proteins, and enzymes while damaging the integrity of the plasma membrane.</u>

Explanation:

Proteins are macromolecules made up of amino acids. These fold and bond to form several biologically important molecules. For instance, enzymes, a special type of protein functions by <em>providing alternative reaction pathways. They work best at a specific pH and </em><em>optimal temperature range</em><em>, beyond which they become non-functional  or denatured entirely. </em>

The denaturing of proteins occur at high temperatures, and alter protein folding, bonding and other types of behavior. Furthermore, membrane proteins are  important for regulating cell function. If these are disrupted, the system cannot maintain homeostasis i.e a constant internal environment.

The lithosphere floats on the asthenosphere like glass on clay. When the clay moves, the glass moves. The movement of the lithos
beks73 [17]

The movement is kind like Earthquakes because at divergent boundaries, lithospheric plates move apart and crust is created. At convergent boundaries, lithospheric plates move together in collision zones where crust is either destroyed by subduction or uplifted to form mountain chains.

<em>Hope this helps you!</em>

Have a great day!
