DNA contains the template needed to copy itself, but it has no catalytic activity in cells. What catalyzes the formation of phos

phodiester bonds between adjacent nucleotides in the DNA polymer being formed during DNA replication?

Answer:

DNA polymerases

Explanation:

The formation of a phosphodiester bond between adjacent nucleotides is catalyzed by the DNA polymerases. They do this efficiently only if the incoming base on the incoming nucleoside triphosphate is complementary to the base on the template strand and can bind efficiently.

Answer:

The answer is DNA polymerase

Explanation: DNA polymerase catalyze the formation of phosphodiester bonds between adjacent nucleotides in the DNA polymer being formed during DNA replication. The DNA polymerase catalyze the formation of poly nucleotide chains through the addition of new nucleotides from incoming deoxyneucleoside triphosphate. The polymerase reaction needs an appropriate DNA template to take place.

Each incoming neucleoside triphosphate first forms a base pair with a base in the template. Next, the DNA polymerase links the incoming base with the predecessor in the chain. Therefore, DNA polymerases are template directed enzymes.

Which of the following is true of the bones of the forearm?
Elza [17]

Answer: b. The radius forms the point of the elbow

c. The radius articulates to the wrist closest to the thumb

Explanation:

Ulna and radius are the two bones of the forearm. These bones articulates with the humerus and carpels of the hand.

b. The radius forms the point of the elbow: The elbow joint is the hinge joint that forms between the proximal ends of the radius and ulna in the forearm and distal ends of the humerus. The radius forms a pointed end.

c. The radius articulates to the wrist closest to the thumb: The wrist forms a complex joint. It forms a transition between the hand and the forearm. The radial deviation in the wrist forms the basis for the movement of the tilting of the wrist joint towards the thumb.

Color in poison dart frogs is controlled by a single gene with multiple alleles. A blue poison dart frog that is heterozygous fo
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Cb>Cy>Co>Cr

Explanation:

First of al we need to do the Punnett square. As a result we get the genotypes:

CyCb

CyCr

CoCb

CoCr

Because there are no red frogs, red is the least dominant as it isn't expressed in any genotype.

Half of the progeny are blue and half of the possible genotypes contain the blue allele meaning that blue is expressed in all genotypes. This means that blue is the most dominant.

The only alleles left are yellow and orange. We can deduce that yellow is more dominant than orange because one of the parent frogs is yellow and contains the genes for yellow and orange.

As a result blue is the most dominant, yellow is the second most dominant, orange is the third most dominant and red is the least dominant.

Which is not true of STRs?
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

These are small consecutive repetitive sections of the DNA – mostly between 5 – 50 times repetitions. They are not part of coding regions (genes) and therefore are prone to non-lethal mutations of DNA. They are therefore very variable between individuals and can be used for DNA forensic identification.
