Answer:

B. Multiple origins of replication are activated per chromosome.

Explanation:

DNA replication runs in 2 directions (bidirectional), starting at the origin of replication an moving in both directions from that point. A eukaryotic chromosome may be replicating at many points along its length at any one time.

DNA is always copied in a 5´ ⇒ 3´ direction, this makes the lagging strand to be synthesized discontinuously as short okazaki fragments.

The whole process happens at the same time in both strands in a replication fork. DNA may have different replication forks at the same time to speed up the process.

1. Which of the following is true about chemical energy?
avanturin [10]
What is true of chemical energy is that chemical energy can be stored more efficiently as glucose than it can be as ATP. All the other answers in this case don't really apply. The correct answer is therefore A.

When ATP is broken down to ADP we get a release of energy - B and C are therefore wrong. Energy is broken in more ways as only ADP - D is also wrong. Only A stays as the correct answer.

These are nucleotides that have a single ring structure. Example: Cytosine, Thymine, and Uracil
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

The question is incomplete.

However, I notice that your question is mainly dealing with

"Nucleotides with a single ring structure"

I tackled that part, also providing explanation to the point you focused on.

Explanation:

Nucleotides are compounds in which nitrogenous bases (purines and pyrimidines) are conjugated to the pentose sugars (ribose or deoxyribose) and at least one phosphate group. Thus a nucleotide consists of a nitrogenous base, pentose sugar and at least one phosphate group.

Examples of the nitrogenous bases are Adenine, Guanine, Thymine, Uracil and Cytosine. Of all, Thymine, Uracil and Cytosine are with single ring, while Adenine and Guanine are double ring structure.

With a tension pneumothorax, which factors contribute to severe hypoxia?
Rasek [7]
<span>Answer: continually increasing pressure on the unaffected lung.

In tension pneumothorax, the pressure is so high that it will push surrounding organ like another lung, heart, or blood vessels. Pushing another lung can make it less expandable, so less air can come inside and less oxygen can be gained.
Pushing heart and blood vessels can also disturb blood circulation.</span>

Why might waves from the same earthquake cause more damage in one area than another?
ra1l [238]
A tsunami can send a wave in multiple directions. Over time a wave will not have as much energy as did when the wave was first started. So when the tsunami hits land it will not be as strong as another wave generated from that same earthquake. EX: When the tsunami hit Japan it knocked over buildings, meanwhile America was hit with a wave from the same earthquake. However the damage was much less.
