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

<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>

What two things can alter the shape and function of an enzyme
mars1129 [50]

Temperature can cause an enzymes shape and function to alter due to the fact that once an enzyme reaches its optimum level, if it goes over it begins to denature. If the temperature is below optimum, then an enzyme will work at a slower rate.  Also, the pH can affect an enzyme.

padilas [110]

Answer and Explanation:

Land - Lion

Water - Sealion

Flies - Bees

Lions have strong retractable jaws that help them eat their prey and that way they adapt to their enviroment.

The Sealion's thick, oily fur and a layer of blubber allow them to keep a high temperature in cold waters.  

A Bees body carries an electrostatic charge that attracts pollen and that way they can keep it in them.

Hope this Helps! Have a GREAT day!

Why would bourses and mountain goats have hooves
photoshop1234 [79]
Think of it like this.  Horses do a LOT of galloping, which is hard on the feet!  Hooves are a physical ADAPTATION, so that the horses won't experience pain on their journeys.  They're hard, so that the horses don't feel the ground nearly as much.  Now, mountain goats travel over rough terrain, with sharp rocks and steep inclines.  Again, it's really easy for them to get hurt strutting around the mountains, so they evolved hard hooves to protect their feet.
