Why are telomeres problematic for eukaryotic chromosome replication? a) They are highly repetitive and thus hard to replicate co

rrectly. b) Telomerase is more error-prone than the normal DNA Polymerase. c) The T loop blocks formation of primers on the lagging strand. d) Removal of the lagging strand primer leaves a gap in the one of the strand's DNA sequences. e) Maintaining very long telomeres promotes cancer cell formation.

Answer: Option E

Maintaining very long telomeres promotes cancer cell formation.

Explanation:

Telomere refers to either of the sequences of DNA at each end of a eukaryotic chromosome.

Usually, in eukaryote chromosome replication, telomeres are not replicated.

Hence, they are usually lost resulting in the shortening of the telomere ends after repeated cycle of cell division. This also leads to cell aging and stoppage of cell division.

The shortening of telomere combined with stoppage of cell division, and cell aging initiation prevent CANCER, which thrives on lengthy telomeres

1) Describe the process of osmosis
klemol [59]
1. Osmosis is a process which occurs when there is a difference in solute concentration between two solutions separated by a semipermeable membrane.

2. Osmotic pressure is the minimum pressure which needs to be applied to a solution to prevent the inward flow of its pure solvent across a semipermeable membrane. It is also defined as the measure of the tendency of a solution to take in pure solvent by osmosis.

3. The semipermeable membrane limits the diffusion of solutes in the water.

4. In an isotonic solution, the flow of water in and out of the cell is happening at the same rate. ... Water moves into and out of cells by osmosis.

5. Osmosis is basically diffusion with water. ... The most common example of facilitated diffusion is the movement of water across a cell membrane through transmembrane proteins, which requires no energy. They are simply powered by the concentration differences of the molecules between the two sides of the cell membrane.

Why does infrared light and heat increase as the concentration of c02 in the atmosphere increases
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer: because as CO2 acts as a green house gas is absorbing rather than reflecting the heat energy received where infrared radiation is simply radiation emited by heated /hot body
