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.

If the producers in a food web were removed, which of the following changes would most likely occur?
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

If the producers would be removed in the food web, then the whole ecosystem would fall down and die.

Explanation:

The reason why producers are important in a food chain is because they provide food for the herbivore animals, and then, the carnivore animals kill and eat the herbivore ones, and whatever is left, is eaten by the decomposers. So, if we remove the root of the tree (producers), then can the tree(rest of food web) survive? The simple answer is NO.

So, Hence, the ecosystem won't be able to last long, all animals will die.
