Why are single-stranded binding proteins necessary for DNA replication?

Biology
1 answer:
Margarita [4]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

d.They prevent the two parental strands from coming together again.

Explanation:

During the process of DNA replication, the two DNA strands should be separated from each other to serve as a template. To separate the two DNA strands, the helicase enzyme breaks down the hydrogen bonds between the complementary base pairs of the DNA strands. The process uses ATP as a source of energy.

Due to the presence of complementary base pairs, the separated DNA strands have a tendency to reanneal by the formation of hydrogen bonds. To prevent the reannealing of separated DNA strands, single stranded binding proteins bind to them. Binding to single stranded binding proteins to the separated DNA strands does not allow them to reanneal.

Polymerization and the break down of a polymer are two opposite reactions. What role does a water molecule play in both of them?
ladessa [460]
<span>In the process of polymerization, a chain of similar smaller molecules called monomer join together to create very large molecules called polymer. Through this chemical reaction, water is created as a by-product. In contrast to hydrolysis or breaking down of polymers, a water molecule is used to break the covalent bond that hold the components of a polymer.</span>

A mutation occurs at the midpoint of a gene, altering all amino acids encoded after the point of mutation. Which mutation could
goblinko [34]

Answer:

Deletion of two nucleotides.

Explanation:

Every amino acid coded by 3 nucleotides.

12:3=4 (amino acids)

6:3=2 (2 amino acids)

3:3=1 (1 amino acid)

After all of these mutations sequence amino acids change, but after continues stay the same.

Only deletion of 2 nucleotides will completely altered all amino acids encoded without mutation.
