Answer:

<em>S. aureus</em> is spherical and arranged in clusters

Explanation:

<em>Staphylococcus aureus </em>is a gram positive bacteria that forms a part of our body microbiota. It is usually found on skin and in upper respiratory tract. The genus name of this organism is <em>Staphylococcus </em>which tells a lot about its morphology. Cocci or coccus is the name given to bacteria who appear spherical. Staph points out to their arrangement which is in clusters. Had it been <em>Streptococcus</em>, it would mean that the bacteria were spherical and arranged in long chains. Similarly, <em>Diplococcus</em> would mean that the bacteria were spherical and arranged in groups of two. Hence from the name <em>Staphylococcus aureus </em> we can say that it is spherical and arranged in clusters.

Explain what, if any, is the issue facing DNA polymerase in regards to its 5’-&gt;3’ activity when replicating DNA.
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The two strands of DNA are replicated in different ways

Explanation:

DNA replication is a process that occurs during the S phase of the cell cycle that consists of making two identical copies of the double-stranded DNA molecule, which subsequently are distributed in the daughter cells during cell division. During this process, DNA polymerase can add nucleotides in 5' to 3' direction, but not in 3' to 5' direction. In consequence, the DNA strand that has 3’ to 5’ directionality can be synthesized directly, while the DNA template strand that has 5’ to 3’ directionality can't be synthesized in a continuous manner and thereby it is created by adding small DNA fragments, which are known as Okazaki fragments (150-200 nucleotides in size).
