Answer: DNA Ligase
Explanation:
During DNA replication, both the parental DNA strands are separated and act as templates for the synthesis of new strands. The formation of the new strands occurs in only 5'-3' direction and thus both the strands are synthesized in a different manner. One new strand with the template of 3'-5' direction will be synthesized continuously and is called a leading strand. The other strand with the template of 5'-3' direction will be synthesized discontinuously in the form of DNA fragments. These fragments are called Okazaki fragments and the strand is called a lagging strand. DNA ligase connects these fragments later to form a continuous lagging strand.
Therefore, DNA ligase is required for ligation of Okazaki fragments, and in absence of DNA ligase, the ligation of fragments will not occur and the newly synthesized strand will be discontinuous. However, if DNA ligase is not present in the reaction mixture, then the chances are that not all the newly synthesized DNA strands will be discontinuous. Only the DNA molecule with the lagging strand will be in the form of fragments.
Answer:
D. Because you get the same number of chromosomes from both parents
Explanation:
Oral polio vaccine is highly effective and inexpensive (about US$0.10 per dose, or US$0.30 per child and its availability has bolstered efforts to eradicate polio. A study carried out in an isolated Eskimo village showed that antibodies produced from subclinical wild virus infection persisted for at least 40 years. Because the immune response to oral polio vaccine is very similar to natural polio infection, it is expected that oral polio vaccination provides similar lifelong immunity to the virus.
Contact immunity to polio can occur when attenuated poliovirus derived from the oral polio vaccine is excreted, and infects and indirectly vaccinates unvaccinated individuals.
Answer:
Watson and Crick discovered that DNA has a double helix shape, consisting of two polynucleotide chains held together by bonds between complementary bases. DNA replication is semi-conservative: half of the parent DNA molecule is conserved in each of the two daughter DNA molecules.
