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.

Assuming that the motion of the object remains the same, at what position will the object be when it had traveled for a total of
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

B. 0 m

Explanation:

The graph given is a position - time graphical model of the motion of a body.

The y-axis denotes the position of the body and the x- axis is the time taken.

To solve this problem, since the velocity of the motion is constant and no acceleration, we trace up the point 6s on the x-axis and find the y-axis equivalent.

  • Completing the graph, the point lies on 0m.
  • At 0m, the object would have traveled for 6s.

What is the difference between Primary and Secondary Succession?
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Some differences between primary and secondary succession are:

-Secondary succession happens on a previously existing community that has been cleared.

Another difference would be:

-Pioneer species for secondary succession are adapted differently- they grow quickly, can disperse quickly and have a short life span

And finally:

-Primary succession develops a new community from scratch

Not sure if you were looking for this, sorry if this is not correct.
