pickupchik [31]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is c. both strands of a molecule act as templates.

Explanation:

DNA replication is a semi-conservative process which means that each strand of DNA acts as a template strand to synthesize the new DNA strand. DNA polymerase is the enzyme that helps in the production of new DNA strands by adding nucleotides at 3' end of the growing DNA stretch.

One DNA strand is called the leading strand and the other lagging strand. The leading strand is synthesized continuously but lagging strands are synthesized in a discontinuous way.  

So due to discontinuous replication of lagging strand small fragments of DNA are synthesized which are called Okazaki fragments. Then these fragments are sealed by ligase enzymes. So the correct answer is c.

The independent variable would be <u><em>a. concentrations of ethylene spray</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

In virtually all scientific investigations that seeks to establish a cause-and-effect relationship, there are usually two main variables involved:

  • <u>Independent Variable: </u>This is the variable that is manipulated by the researcher to cause or establish the extent of the effect it will have on the dependent variable that is being studied. It is the cause<em><u>.</u></em>
  • <u>Dependent Variable:</u> This is variable that is measured by the researcher. It is the effect which is dependent on the independent variable.

In the scenario given, <em>different concentrations of ethylene spray</em>, is what the researcher manipulates, while <em>the length of ripening time, </em>is what is measured by the researcher.

The <em>the length of ripening time </em>is dependent on the <em>different concentrations of ethylene spray. </em>Therefore:

  • the length of ripening time is the dependent variable
  • the concentrations of ethylene spray is the independent variable.

SashulF [63]
I believe the answer is the Plateau phase of the sexual response cycle. The sexual response cycle has four stages of sexual responding described by Maters and Johnson; that is the excitement, plateau, orgasm, resolution phases. During the excitement phase, the genital areas become engorged with blood. During the orgasm phase, there are muscle contractions all over the body, further increasing breathing, pulse and blood pressure rates; and during resolution phase the body gradually returns to its unaroused state as the engorged genital blood vessels release accumulated blood.
