Why is it necessary for the DNA to make a copy of itse

spin [16.1K]4 years ago

DNA is a huge molecule with lakhs of genes. At time of protein synthesis, only one or a few genes are needed which is very difficult to synthesize directly from that huge molecule.

Secondly, DNA is a very important molecule, which remains inside nucleus. All the protein synthesizing elements like amino acids etc are present in cytoplasm. So protein synthesis inside nucleus is impossible.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

DNA is the genetic molecule of an organism. It is a huge polymer of different nucleotides stacked together one after the other. One gene occupies a very small fragment of this DNA. So during protein synthesis, if protein is directly synthesized from the whole DNA, a huge portion of energy will be lost fully unwinding the helical structure. And there will be more chances of an error and mutations will creep in very easily.

Secondly, DNA remains inside the nucleus of a cell. And inside the nucleus there's no entry of amino acids, which are essentially needed for protein synthesis. So protein synthesis from DNA is very risky and practically not feasible.

Circular motion includes all curved paths, not just movement in full circles
Lelu [443]

Answer;

The above statement is true

Explanation;

-Circular motion is a movement of an object along the circumference of a circle or rotation along a circular path. It can be uniform, with constant angular rate of rotation and constant speed, or non-uniform with a changing rate of rotation.

When an object moves in a circle at a constant speed its velocity (which is a vector) is constantly changing. Its velocity is changing not because the magnitude of the velocity is changing but because its direction is.

What process results in the most energy released?
Murrr4er [49]

Answer: In most chemical reactions, bonds are both broken and made. Energy is absorbed when bonds are broken, and released when bonds are made. The sum total of the released (negative) energy and absorbed (positive) energy determines whether the overall reaction is exothermic or endothermic.

Hope this helps!
