☯️ The DNA ligase is responsible for :

  • <u>Linking the short sections of the lagging side.</u>

<h3><u>Explanation</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h3>

The ligase is a enzyme responsible for the linking or joining of short sections or strands. It connects the strands by forming a bond between the phosphate group of one DNA strand with deoxyribose group of other.

It is also used in Okazaki fragments connection which are formed in the lagging side during DNA replication. So, We can say that DNA ligase is a specific enzyme which helps in the linking and connecting the DNA strands or fragments by the formation of phospodiester bond.

The diagram shows the thermohaline circulation, also know as the ocean's conveyor belt.
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

The statement that is true about red currents in the thermohaline circulation is that  water in the red currents contain less salt (option A).

Explanation:

Thermohaline circulation is a concept used in oceanography, referring to the oceanic circulation that depends on factors such as surface heat and salinity, as well as the density gradient that they determine.

On a map, the different currents that are part of the thermohaline circulation are usually represented with blue and red lines, where:

  • <em>The blue lines represent deep, cold, dense and higher salinity currents.</em>
  • <em>The red lines represent surface currents, warm, with less salt content, so they are less dense.</em>

The red currents (see image) represented on the map have less salt content, compared to the currents represented in blue.

natulia [17]

<span>The nurse conducting wound care should choose a dressing that keeps the periwound skin dry and the surgical wound bed moist to contribute healing. The dressing used for wound care should control exudate from the wound, but it should not desiccate the wound bed. There must be a pressure in application while cleaning the periwound and wound may deepend the wound bed. Using sterile normal saline and a sterile gauze to clean the surgical wound reduces the incidences of infection.</span>
