Does the distribution of bases in sea urchin DNA and salmon DNA follow Chargaff’s rules? a) Yes, because the %A approximately eq

uals the %T and the %G approximately equals the %C in both species. b) No, because %A + %T does not equal %G + %C in both species. c) No, because %A is higher than %T, and %G is higher than %C in both species. d) Yes, because the %A + %T is greater than the %G + %C in both species.

Answer:

A. Yes, because the %A approximately equals the %T and the %G approximately equals the %C in both species.

Explanation:

According to Chargaff's rule, in all cellular DNAs, the number of adenosine residues (A) is equal to the number of thymidine residues (T). And the number of guanosine residues (G) is equal to the number of cytidine residues (C). Therefore, the sum of the purine residues equals the sum of the pyrimidine residues (A+ G= C+ T). It is based on the fact that a purine base always pairs with a pyrimidine base in a double helix DNA.

Chargaff’s rule is followed in all the double-helical DNA molecules irrespective of the species. In DNAs of sea urchin and salmon, the percentage of adenine is equal to that of the thymine and the percentage of guanine is equal to that of the cytosine. Therefore, Chargaff's rule is followed.

The lagging strand runs in a _________ direction and is replicated _________.
e-lub [12.9K]

The lagging strand runs in a   5’ to 3’ direction and is replicated  discontinuously.

<h3>Why a discontinuous or delayed tape?</h3>

The other strand, called delayed, is replicated discontinuously. In this case, the presence of Okazaki fragments is necessary, small pieces of DNA that will bind to form a new strand. - DNA is degraded by two types of enzymes.

The ends of a DNA strand are classified as 5' and 3', as they correspond to the carbon number of the pentose where the phosphate and hydroxyl (OH) group are located, which join in a phosphodiester bond.

What chemicals regulate the cell cycle how do they work?
Molodets [167]
Cyclins are the chemicals that regulate the cell cycle. Cyclins work by regulating the timing of the cell cycle in eukaryotic cell. Cyclins activates cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) (an enzyme that works by adding <span>negatively charged phosphate groups to other molecules in a process called phosphorylation) by binding to it to form a cyclin-Cdk complex. This complex then functions by acting as a signal to the cell to move to the next cell cycle phase. At the end of the event, the cyclin is degraded, Cdk is deactivated, therefore signaling exit from a specific phase.</span>
