The right answer is A. It stores energy until a cell needs it.

ATP is a ribose-linked adenine molecule that is attached to a chain of three phosphate groups.

The mechanism is the transfer of a phosphate group to another molecule and the ATP then becomes adenosine diphophate (ADP).

But a cell has very little ATP. And as it consumes permamently, it must constantly manufacture (synthesize) and it is including cellular respiration that provides the energy necessary for the manufacture of ATP by allowing phosphorylation (addition of a phosphate to the ADP).

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

He should get his mitochondrial haplotype sequenced, given the genetic variation in mitochondrial sequences compared to Y chromosomes.

Explanation:

  • Mitochondrial DNA haplotypes are  specific regions of mitochondrial DNA that cluster with other mitochondrial sequences to show the phylogenetic origins of maternal lineages.
  • Mitochondrial DNA haplotypes are associated with a range of phenotypes and disease.
  • Mitochondrial DNA contains 37 genes, all of which are essential for normal mitochondrial function.
  • Thirteen of these genes provide instructions for making enzymes involved in oxidative phosphorylation.

Why does a new DNA strand elongate only in the 5' to 3' direction during DNA replication? (A) DNA polymerase begins adding nucle
Georgia [21]

A new DNA strand elongate only in the 5' to 3' direction during DNA replication because the  "polarity of the DNA molecule prevents addition of nucleotides at the 3' end" .

DNA replication occurs in the 5' to 3' direction. DNA polymerase can only add nucleotides to the 3' OH group of the growing DNA strand, this is why DNA replication occurs only in the 5' to 3' direction.

DNA polymerase can only add to the 3' end, so the 5' end of the primer remains unaltered. Consequently, synthesis proceeds immediately only along the so-called leading strand.

Hence, the correct answer will be option (B)
