Which statement about the DNA replication process in prokaryotes is true?

Biology

wolverine [178]4 years ago

Answer:

The answer is D. Prokaryotes have one origin of replication but it proceeds in two directions.

Explanation:

DNA replication is a process in which in which one parental DNA strand acts as template to synthesize complementary daughter strand. There are specific sequences in DNA from where replication starts. These sequences are called origin of replication. In Eukaryotic cells due to large number of DNA many origins of replication are present. However, in prokaryotic DNA only one origin of replication is present that is bi-directional.

Explain how cells specialize to form specific tissue and organs?
S_A_V [24]
<span>All cells have the same DNA. They are different because different genes have been locked up and only some of them are expressed. The process began in the embryonic stage, when stem cells are turned into different types of cells by turning off some of the genes. Scientists have been looking for ways to reverse the process, meaning turning specialized cells back into stem cells. Some success has been reported using different methods. The latest one uses a weak acid to stress the cells.</span>

Prokaroytic and eukarayotic cells
asambeis [7]

Answer:

A prokaryote is a cellular organism that lacks an envelope-enclosed nucleus. The word prokaryote comes from the Greek πρό and κάρυον. In the two-empire system arising from the work of Édouard Chatton, prokaryotes were classified within the empire Prokaryota.Eukaryotic cells are cells that contain a nucleus and organelles, and are enclosed by a plasma membrane. Organisms that have eukaryotic cells include protozoa, fungi, plants and animals. These organisms are grouped into the biological domain Eukaryota.

How does the anaphase stage differ in the two phases of meiosis?
Ronch [10]

The answer is c. Anaphase I separates homologous chromosomes and anaphase II separates sister chromatids into daughter cells.


Meiosis is a cell division which results in the reduction of chromosome number by half (from diploid to haploid) in daughter cells. It consists of meiosis I and meiosis II. 

In anaphase I, the sister chromatids separate from each other to the opposite sides of the cells. In meiosis I there are 46 chromosomes in duplicates which are present as pairs of sister chromatids. When comes to separation, homologous chromosomes separates only, but not sister chromatids. Homologous chromosomes are present only in meiosis I.

 In anaphase II, since the cell is haploid, there are 23 chromosomes in duplicates, which are present as sister chromatids. So, in this phase, sister chromatids are those who separates.
