Answer:

Gigantism

Explanation:

Gigantism

This is an unusual form of growth and stature as there is hypersecretion of growth hormone (GH), somatotropin prior to puberty. This will cause a further overgrowth of all the body tissues. This condition can be triggered by an anterior pituitary adenoma. It is yet to be ascertained if a genetic link can be the cause.

In Gigantism, there is unusual and increased growth, mainly of the long bones, since epiphyseal closure is not active. This situation causes poor Sexual and mental developments.

DNA replication of chromosomal DNA in a cell requires all of the following, EXCEPT A) DNA polymerase B) primase C) helicase D) R
Viktor [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is D)RNA polymerase

Explanation:

In DNA replication many enzymes and proteins are required to replicate a DNA template. For initiation of DNA synthesis the two DNA strands must be separated which is done by helicase.

Then primase adds short nucleotide sequence and initiate DNA replication. After that DNA polymerase acts and adds nucleotide at the 3' end of growing  DNA strand. Ligase is the enzyme that joins the two Okazaki fragments that are created in the lagging strand.

RNA polymerase is not required in DNA replication and it works in transcription therefore the correct answer is RNA polymerase.
