The basilar membrane is a component of our auditory system wherein it is located on our inner ear, most specifically the cochlea. This organ mainly helps the cochlea on stabilising the sounds that we hear as the vibrations get transmitted from outside to the inner ear via the ossicles.
Answer:
Because the leading strand is synthesized continuously while the lagging strand is discontinuously synthesized.
Explanation:
Two DNA strands have opposite polarity, that is, the 5' end of one strand lies opposite to the 3' end of the other strand. However, DNA replication can occur in 5' to 3' direction only since the formation of phosphodiester bonds require the presence of nucleophile 3' OH to attack the 5' phosphate of an incoming deoxyribonucleotide.
The problem is solved by the synthesis of the leading strand continuously and the synthesis of the lagging strand in a discontinuous manner. Lagging strand synthesis requires the formation of primers and their elongation to form Okazaki fragments that may have few hundreds to few thousands of nucleotides. Removal of primers from Okazaki fragments is followed by joining them together to make the long lagging strand. The discontinuous replication of the lagging strand makes the replication at the leading strand ahead of it.
True, definitions can vary, but this one will do
Answer:
a chordate.
Explanation:
Taxonomy can be defined as the process of naming, classification and description of living organisms such as plants and animals. The eight (8) biological classification (taxonomy) used for grouping and organizing organisms are; kingdom, domain, phylum, family, order, class, species and genus.
Generally, taxonomy helps scientist to have a good understanding and knowledge when studying various organisms.
A chordate can be defined as an animal found in phylum chordata of the animal kingdom such as vertebrates, cephalochordates, tunicates, etc.
The four (4) shared anatomical features or characteristics of chordates includes the following;
I. Notochord.
II. Dorsal hollow nerve cord.
III. Pharyngeal slits.
IV. Post-an_al tail.
In this scenario, you find a small, elongated animal that has segmental musculature, a coelom, and a complete digestive tract. Thus, this animal is a chordate.
BLINK protein speeds up stomatal movements in response to light fluctuations resulting in improved plant growth and water use.
Plants can't move, so their “blinking” helps protect them from burning or bleaching when they are in bright sun.
I'm not sure if the first part is right, but I do know the second part is.
