There are four steps in bacterial conjugation. The second step is missing in this list. 1. Special sex pilus connects two cells.

2. 3. Each cell makes a complementary DNA strand. 4. The cells separate. Which is the missing step for the process of conjugation described? Two new, identical cells are produced. The cell membrane elongates and pinches off. Some DNA moves from one cell to another. A DNA molecule attaches to the cell membrane.

Answer:

The correct answer is "Some DNA moves from one cell to another".

Explanation:

Bacterial conjugation is a type of genetic material transference that occurs when a bacterium gets in direct contact with another. First, the bacteria gets connected with the second bacteria by using a structure known as special sex pilus. The second step is that some DNA moves from one cell to another. Actually, this DNA is the one that contains the genetic material that is going to be transferred.

Which hormone causes FSH and LH to be released?
vodomira [7]

Answer:

GnRH

Explanation:

GnRH stimulates pituitary secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH). LH and FSH then stimulate the ovaries, resulting in the growth of secondary preantral follicles and ovulation.

Although some release hormones are also secreted in pulses, GnRH is unique because pulsed gonadotroph stimulation is necessary for normal LH and FSH synthesis and secretion, while continuous infusion of GnRH - or the use of such an agonist hormone that stimulates continuous infusion - results in negative modulation of gonadotropic responsiveness to GnRH. This property is clinically used to treat hormone-responsive conditions such as endometriosis and precocious puberty.

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Speciation is the method by which unique species evolve from a common ancestor. In this case, two of these species that split from a common ancestor interbred and created a hybrid. This hybrid was apparently stronger and possibly better adapted to the environment, which led to extinction of a species formed by the initial speciation event.

Arrange the events to describe how an earthquake
Aneli [31]

The correct chronological order in which an earthquake occurs.

1. The plate suddenly move.

2. Stored energy is released in the form of seismic waves.

3. Due to the movement in the mantel, compression goes on increasing.

4. The earth surface vibrate.

When the plate move from the surface of the earth, all the stored energy present in it is usually released in the form of seismic energy waves and due to the movement in the mantel, compression goes on increasing, then after , the earth surface vibrate.

Hope it has helped:-)

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is "stress relaxation response."

Explanation:

Smooth muscle cells relaxes after being stretched which is called "stress relaxation response". If we explain it a bit further, smooth muscle cells lack gap junctions and because that contraction of a single cell doesn't spread to adjacent cell resulting with no strong contraction.
