Answer:

Only one of the original DNA strands acts as a template during replication.

Explanation:

The DNA of every living cell replicates prior to division. It occurs in the S-phase of interphase stage. The DNA is a long double-helical structure. Before the actual duplication occurs, the double strand of the DNA needs to be unwound. This unwinding is done by HELICASE by breaking the weak hydrogen bonds that binds each base pair.

After the unwinding, two separate strands result with only one of the strands serving as a template for the new strand synthesized by DNA polymerase. DNA polymerase enzyme synthesizes new DNA strand by adding nucleotide bases that are complementary to each template strand.

i.e. DNA polymerase will add nucleotide G to the growing strand if it reads nucleotide C on the template strand.

(Q002) Review the vertebral column and individual vertebrae from Exercise 3 (p. 166 of your lab manual). What similarities and d
Alexandra [31]

Answer and Explanation:

1. The biggest similarity between the main types of vertebrae is the location where they are found since they are all established on the body's back, precisely on the midline of the back. The main differences, on the other hand, are related to the size and weight of each of them.

2. The similarities exist because all the vertebrae have to promote the support of the body, the back being the most appropriate place for them to establish themselves.

3. The differences are related to the function and type of support that each vertebrae promotes, the higher the level of systemization, the larger and thicker the vertebrae must be.

4. The caudal vertebrae should be similar to the vertebrae of the coccix, since a tail would be a representation of elongation of the coccix. We can reach this conclusion through the analysis of images that promote the visualization of this area of the body.
