Explanation:

DNA replication is a process common to both prokaryotes and Eukaryotes with few differences and similarities.

<u>Differences:</u>

1. Origin of replication (ori) : is a sequence of the genome where initiation of replication takes place. Prokaryotes have only single ori while eukaryotes have multiple ori as the DNA is large in eukaryotes so require multiple or to replicate whole DNA.

2. Replication site: prokaryotes lack nucleus where DNA is present in the cytoplasm while eukaryotes posses nucleus which encloses DNA. Therefore, replication takes place in cytoplasm in prokaryotes while in the nucleus in eukaryotes.

<u>Similarities:</u>

1. Enzymes: both posses same enzymes for DNA replication like DNA helicase, primase, polymerase.

2. The direction of synthesis: the enzyme DNA polymerase synthesizes new strand of DNA in the same direction that is 5' to 3' direction.

Thus, marked answer in the table are correct answer.

Zanzabum

Answer:

There are different types of reflexes, and some of them can be controlled voluntarily due to cortical processing.

Explanation:

Even if there is an initial myotactic reflex of moving away from the heat, the cortical processing that is subject to learning makes you not let go of the pan. It should be noted that there are different types of reflexes, and not all postural reactions are automatic. The cerebral cortex influences voluntary postural adjustment movements. Such control is mainly performed by the brain stem, where ocurrs the modulation of motor neurons and spinal cord interneurons through the lateral descending (fine movements) and medial (posture and balance) downward pathways.

Which include the male and female sex cells
KiRa [710]
  <span>Males and females are attracted to each other in order to ensure the viability and fertility of the offspring, which is also why it is uncommon that males of one species be attracted to females of another. Members of two different species cannot mate and thus cannot produce fertile, viable offspring, unless they are part of different sub-species. But they must be part of the same species.

What are biofilms, how do they form, and how can biofilms complicate treatment of infectious diseases?
Elis [28]

Answer:

<u>Biofilms are</u> defined as complex communities of microorganisms that grow embedded in a self-produced polymeric organic matrix and adhered to a living or inert surface, and that can present a single microbial species or a range of different species

Explanation:

The bacteria that form the biofilm are in what is called sessile form, exhibiting a phenotype different from those of the same cells in unicellular or free form (planktonic form) with respect to the growth rate and gene transcription (Donlan, 2002 ).

<u> The formation</u> of biofilms is an adaptive strategy of microorganisms, since growth in biofilm offers four important advantages: (I) protects microorganisms from the action of adverse agents, (II) increases the availability of nutrients for their growth, (III) facilitates the use of water, reducing the possibility of dehydration and (IV) enables the transfer of genetic material (DNA). All of these circumstances can increase your survival capabilities. As a consequence, <u>the usual methods of disinfection or the use of antibiotics are often ineffective against biofilm bacteria</u>.

In addition to the risk of contamination, the development of biofilms can interfere with different processes and cause damage to the equipment. In drinking water systems the formation of biofilms can obstruct the pipes reducing their speed and transport capacity causing an increase in energy consumption. The formation of biofilm in heat exchangers and cooling towers can reduce heat transfer and as a consequence its efficiency in the process. The formation of persistent biofilms on metal surfaces can cause corrosion due to acid production by bacteria.
