Question: Which two statements are true for the leading strand in DNA?

It is synthesized toward the replication fork.

It is synthesized in the 3′ to 5′ direction.

It is synthesized away from the replication fork.

It is synthesized in the 5′ to 3′ direction.

Answer:

The two statements that are true for the leading strand in DNA are "it is synthesized toward the replication fork and it is synthesized in the 5′ to 3′ direction"

Explanation:

Leading strand in DNA is the strand of new DNA being synthesized in the same direction where the replication fork is moving. The movement of replication fork allows the access of template for the new DNA. The DNA synthesis is continuous in the leading strand. It is synthesized in the 5' to 3' as DNA synthesis always takes place in this direction. This is because dNTP ( deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate) provides free 3' OH group where new dNTP can be added by the enzyme DNA polymerase.

What part of the body contains bile, an enzyme that helps break down lipids?
Bezzdna [24]

Bile also neutralizes the acid produced by the stomach to provide ideal alkaline conditions for enzymes in the small intestine."

Finger [1]

The right answer is DNA is located in the nucleus.

The genome is the whole genetic material of an organism. It contains both the coding sequences, i.e. those that encode proteins, and the non-coding sequences. In most organisms, the genome is the DNA in the cells. However, in some viruses called retroviruses (eg HIV), the genetic material is RNA.
