Answer:

5' → 3' direction or 3'- hydroxyl

Explanation:

DNA replication takes place in the direction from 5' to 3' prime because the template strand is read along 3' to 5' direction and complementary strand is made in opposite direction of template strand during replication.

The new nucleotide that is added on the free 3' hydroxyl end of ribose sugar by phosphodiester bond in the new complementary strand. 3' to 5' phosphodiester linkage makes the backbone of polynucleotide.

In DNA synthesis adenine pairs with thymine with two hydrogen bonds and guanine pairs with cytosine with three hydrogen bonds. So the correct answer is 5' → 3' direction or 3'- hydroxyl.

Meiosis and mitosis are both types of cell division. Describe the function of each and the type of cells produced by each proces
Talja [164]
What is Mitosis?

"Mitosis is the cycle that eukaryotic cells go through in order to divide. During mitosis, a cell duplicates its DNA and divides into two genetically identical cells. 

Mitosis and cytokinesis are part of the mitotic phase of the cell cycle, which make up about 20 percent of the entire lifecycle of a cell. The end result of mitosis is two completely separate cells with equal and similar cellular components. "  


"Meiosis is the special cell division cycle for gamete cells, or sex cells. Chromosomes carry the genetic code for an organism, and come in pairs. In asexual reproduction, a cell will just divide itself to create two new cells.  In sexual reproduction, the parent provides one set of each chromosome, or half the genetic code for an organism. When the two parent donor gametes – typically an egg and sperm – meet in fertilization, they provide the offspring with the full set of necessary chromosomes. For example, humans require 46 chromosomes, or 23 pairs. An egg or sperm will have just 23 chromosomes, or one half of the pair. This makes gamete cell division more complex than ordinary cell division. Within this cycle, the number of chromosomes is halved, typically going from a diploid (two sets) to haploid (one set) cell. It also includes a step where the chromosomes cross, allowing for more genetic diversity in reproduction."

tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

Insulin is a protein hormone which binds to the membrane receptor where as steroid hormones bind to the intracellular receptors.

Explanation:

Hormones can be divided into two groups based on their binding with receptor. Some hormones are water soluble like protein or peptide hormone (example is insulin) and catecholamines. These water soluble hormones cannot cross the plasma membrane of the target cell and thus bind to the membrane receptor. Binding to the membrane receptor leads to activation of intracellular enzymes which bring the physiological change. Steroid hormones in the other case can cross the plasma membrane and then bind to the intracellular receptors. The hormone receptor complex then either binds or activates specific portion of DNA to bring the physiological change.  

Insulin is made by beta cells islets of Langerhans in the pancreas. It controls the levels of glucose. It is a small protein made of two polypeptides, one of 21 amino acids and the other of 30 amino acids. These two are called A chain and B chain and are linked together by disulphide bonds. The pro-hormone contains an extra stretch called C-peptide. During the maturation process the proinsulin looses the c-peptide to become mature insulin protein hormone. An american company called Eli Lilly, for the first time made recombinant human insulin.
