Diploid nuclei of the ascomycete Neurospora crassa contain 14 chromosomes. A single diploid cell in an ascus will undergo one ro

und of meiosis, followed in each of the daughter cells by one round of mitosis, producing a total of eight ascospores. If a single, diploid G2 nucleus in an ascus contains 400 nanograms (ng) of DNA, then a single ascospore nucleus of this species should contain how much DNA (ng), carried on how many chromosomes?

Answer:

Amount of DNA in a diploid G2 nucleus after S phase has already undergone DNA replication hence the amount of DNA in a diploid nucleus in G1 would be 200 ng. As the organism is diploid, 200 ng of DNA would be carried on 14 chromosomes.

Summarize the key factors DNA polymerase requires to replicate DNA.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

DNA polymerase is an enzyme that helps in the synthesis of new strands of DNA. It is found in both prokaryote and eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, there are 3 types of DNA polymerase and more DNA polymerase found in eukaryotes.  

The 3 types of DNA polymerase are DNA polymerase I, DNA polymerase II, DNA polymerase III.  The DNA pol I and DNA pol II helps in DNA repair rather than DNA replication. The DNA pol III is the major enzyme that initiates the replication.  

DNA polymerase III is a multisubunit enzyme that functions as a dimer of these multiple subunits. The DNA polymerase enzyme has 3 significant enzymatic activities -  

All DNA polymerase direct the synthesis of DNA from 3' to 5' end.

It possesses 3' to 5' exonuclease activity. It also helps in proofreading activity by replacing the incorrect nucleotides with the correct base sequence.  

Some DNA polymerase has a 5' to 3' exonuclease activity. It is found in the lagging strand.

DNA polymerase is not able to initiate DNA synthesis alone. They need a free 3' end, where the enzyme can add new nucleotides. It means they require 2 primers to initiate the DNA replication in both the direction.  

The strands act as complementary to the DNA polymerase. The DNA polymerase adds new strands continuously in 5' to 3' direction in the leading strand. While in lagging strand short fragments of DNA formed. Later they attached by DNA ligase.

DNA polymerase also needs RNA polymerase in some cases to start replication. Such a process is called reverse transcription.

In ____________ , signals pass through a cell junction from one cell to adjacent cells.
erastovalidia [21]
The answer should be NEURONES (nerve cells).
Neurons transmit electrical signals called NERVE IMPULSES from the cell body through the axon to the end plate. The junction between the end plate and the adjacent cell is called SYNAPSE. impulses passes through the synapse by diffusion of chemicals.

Explain how atomic number relates to the number of particles in an atoms nucleus
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

the atomic number is relates to the number of particles in an atoms nucleus because is the number of protons.

Explanation:

the nucleus of the atoms has neutrons and protons in its composition. The protons which is the positive charges of the atoms is the same quantity with the atomic number.
