Answer:

Three theoretical models for the replication of DNA had been proposed in the past. Out of these, the method of semi-conservative replication is most widely accepted.

Conservative replication: In this method, no DNA unwinding takes place. The parent DNA gives rise to daughter DNA.

Dispersive Method: In this method, the chains in the DNA molecule break and recombination occurs randomly. The daughter and parent strands will have segments of recombinant DNA.

Semi- conservative: In this method, the two strands of the double helix unwind. Each strand acts as a template for the synthesis of a new strand.

DNA replication is more complex in eukaryotes as compared to prokaryotes. Prokaryotes have a single point of origin from where the replication begins. Eukaryotes have multiple points of origin. Eukaryotic cells have a unidirectional method of replication whereas prokaryotes do not. Prokaryotes just have two polymerases whereas eukaryotes have more than four. The replication rate is faster in prokaryotes.

Sholpan [36]

<u>Answer</u>: works optimally at 20°C

Enzymes are a broad group of biological catalysts that have the role of accelerating chemical reactions by binding to molecules and altering them in specific ways. They are essential to the correct functioning of the body.

Enzymes function only at certain temperatures and pH ranges. The enzyme shown in the graph works optimally at 20°C. This is shown by the fact that the reaction rate, enhanced by the enzyme, reaches a maximum at this temperature. The higher the temperature, the more effective the enzyme.

However, at temperatures higher than this optimal threshold, the enzyme will gradually decrease in efficiency. To high or low temperatures will have this effect.
