How does the enzyme telomerase meet the challenge of replicating the ends of linear chromosomes?

Biology
1 answer:
maxonik [38]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The correct answer is C) It catalyzes the lengthening of telomeres, compensating for the shortening that could occur during replication without telomerase activity.

Explanation:

While replicating, the ends of the chromosomes always lose a part of the ends, therefore, the telomerase catalyzes this growing process, somehow compensating the information that will be lost.

What was the purpose of placing the drop of distilled water onto the slide before smearing the bacterial colony onto the slide?
12345 [234]

Answer:

1. In order to fix the bacterial to the slide;

<u>so that it will not be lost during the staining procedure.</u>

<u>so that false impression  or result will not be given by the bacteria in water,</u>

<u>Distilled water is used to prevent contamination with impurities  e,g metals ions and crystals</u>.

Explanation.

In smear preparation; the bacterial cells should also be well dispersed,so that they do not clumped together to form' big glob'.(large round masses) The later affect clear field view of the bacterial mophology, affected staining,  and therefore  gives inaccurate results,

Fixing to the slide also affects the morphology of bacterial cells, through shrinking in size, which can lead to loss of structural characteristics and extra-cellular matrixes,

Show how evolution could have occurred by the process of natural selection
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Natural selection is basically a way for nature to choose what works and what doesn't work.  For example, if an animal was born with webs to swim, but most of its food source can be gotten on land, then the animal will die off until it evolves to go on land.  That is how evolution works with natural selection.  In the past long ago, millions of years back, animals in the water needed oxygen to breath, but the water started to lose it.  The land had air, and then the fish slowly grew legs, and their gills would evolve to lungs.  Eventually they would be able to roam the land.  Because there was so much oxygen with all of the shrubs, trees, and plants, that allowed the bodies of animals to grow big.
