Distention from accumulating gas and fluid impede venous return, leading to bowel wall ischemia.

<u>Explanation:</u>

When the bowel lumen is obstructed, the gases and fuids starts accumulating as a repose to the obstruction. The accumulated fluid and gases results in the swelling or enlargement. This will result in the production of electrolytes and water inside the mumen that is in obstruction. The wall of the bowle will also enlarge and becomes swollen.

As more and more fluid and gas gets accumulated in the bowel, the bowel wall will be enlarged and as there is an increase in the pressure due to this accumulation, the fluid starts to leak from the wall. This will enter peritoneum and necrosis. This will result in an acute emergency when it becomes serious.

Answer:

B) Polymerases can only synthesize in the 5' to 3' direction

Explanation:

But the lagging strand has the opposite directionality, so the polymerase must work in the opposite direction of the replication fork.In consequence, the replication process undergoes periodic breaks, and the enzymes have to stop and start again while helicase separates both strands, resulting in the polymerization of okazaki fragments.
