Answer:

C) is the part of the strand that is added first

Explanation:

DNA replication occur by a semiconservative model. During DNA replication the strands of DNA are unbounded by DNA helicase and stabilized by single cell binding proteins.

The primase enzyme build the short primers and DNA polymerase synthesize the new strand of DNA. One restriction for DNA polymerase is that it can only synthesize the DNA strand in 5' to 3' direction. That's why 5' end of DNA is always synthesized first.

The leading strand is synthesized continuously and lagging strand is synthesized in fragments known as okazaki fragments because of DNA polymerase ability to synthesize the strand in only 5' to 3' direction. These fragments are joined by DNA ligase and RNA primers are also replaced by DNA polymerase.

A hidden population has been discovered in Turkey. Researchers have calculated that 22% of the population have Uner Tan Syndrome
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Thus, 50% of the population are are heterozygous carriers for this condition

Explanation:

Researchers have calculated that 22% of the population have Uner Tan Syndrome. This condition follows the recessive mode of inheritance.

22% have the condition = q² (genotypic frequency uu) = 22/100 = 0.22

using the formular p + q = 1, since q² = 0.22, q = √0.22 = 0.4690

Thus p = 1-q where  is 0.4690 = 1-0.4690

  p = 0.5310

Then p² = 0.5310² = 0.2820 = 28% (genotypic frequency of homozygous normal)

using the formula p² + 2pq + q² where 2pq is the genotypic frequency of the heterozygous carriers. Thus, we have

2 x 0.5310 x 0.4690 = 0.498 = 50%

Thus, 50% of the population are are heterozygous carriers for this condition

1. The burning of fossil fuels contributes to all of the following ecological problems except for:
kirill115 [55]

The burning of fossil fuels does not contribute to ozone layer depletion.

The burning of fossil fuels leads to the release of gases such as oxides of nitrogen, sulfur, and carbon as well as particulate matter such as smoke, ashes, etc.

The oxides released from fossil fuel burning can cause global warming (carbon dioxide), acid rain (SO2), and air pollution (particulate matter).

Ozone layer depletion is caused by pollutants such as halocarbons, solvents, etc.

What is similar about fermentation and phtotsynthesis.
azamat
Both photosynthesis and respiration involve the conversion of energy from one form to another through a series of biochemical reactions. Both processes use and produce ATP in reactions that are carried out on membranes and are controlled by enzymes.

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer: conditioned

Bobby touches his newborn brother's palm, and his little brother takes hold of Bobby's finger and will not let go. This is known as the conditioned reflex.

Explanation:

A conditioned reflex is a response or behaviour learned after birth. So, once the newborn acquires this learned response, they can perform them even without thinking about it.

Thus, Bobby's brother (the newborn) holding on to his finger and not letting go shows that it is a conditioned reflex
