What enzyme connects new nucleotides and proofreads them in separated DNA strands?

Biology

<span>DNA polymerase is the enzyme that connects new nucleotides and proofreads them into separate DNA strands. 

This process is part of DNA replication. A cell's DNA is replicated before a cell divides. The two strands of a DNA molecule have complementary base pairs. Each strand in the pair consists of a nucleotide sequence which is able to provide the information to duplicate itself. Before the duplication occurs, the length of the DNA that is about to be copied must be unwound and the two strands must be separated. This is done by breaking the weak hydrogen bonds that link the pairs together. They must then be kept apart from each other to expose the bases so that the new nucleotide partners can bond to them. DNA polymerase is the enzyme that moves along the exposed DNA strand and joins the new nucleotides to manufacture a new DNA strand that is a duplicate of the original</span><span>

A male cardinal's red color is an example of a trait affected by natural selection. The females of the species choose mates
kompoz [17]

Answer:

In the cardinals, if the females start using a different criterion than the color of the feather when they choose couple, most likely to happen is that decreased variation in the shades of red because no form of the trait is advantageous.

Explanation:

Options for this question are:

  • <em>Increased variation in the shades of red because the selection pressure has been relieved.</em>
  • <em>Increased variation in the shades of red because the cardinals try different ways to impress the females.</em>
  • <em>Decreased variation in the shades of red because no form of the trait is advantageous.</em>
  • <em>Decreased variation in the shades of red because the only reason for variation was selection pressure.</em>

In the context of natural selection, male cardinals court females using the coloring of their feathers as a form of sexual selection. This means that the shades of red in the feathers are a selection criterion in these birds, and the more visible shades represent an advantage.

But, if the selection criterion was not the color of the feathers, this trait would no longer represent an advantage in the competition between the males to be chosen as a mate. Instead, the trait that would determine sexual selection would be the one that experiences an increase in its variation<em>.</em>
