The summer solstice (or estival solstice), also known as midsummer, occurs when a planet's rotational axis, in either northern or southern hemispheres, is most inclined toward the star that it orbits. Earth's maximum axial tilt toward the Sun is 23° 26′. This happens twice each year (once in each hemisphere), at which times the Sun reaches its highest position in the sky as seen from the north or the south pole.

<span>The appropriate answer is A. the hemisphere is is tilted toward the sun and the sun reaches its highest point in the sky. This usually occurs on June 20 or 21. At this time the northern hemisphere experiences its longest day. Summer in the nothern hemisphere means that the earth is tilted towards the sun and receives sun rays that are more direct. </span>

Ipatiy [6.2K]
1. During DNA elongation, polymerase enzyme adds new, free nucleotides to the three prime end of the newly forming strand, elongating it in  five prime to three prime direction while the telomerase protects the important genes at the end of the chromosome from been deleted as the DNA strand shorten during DNA elongation.

2. During DNA elongation, helicase enzyme separates the double stranded DNA  into single strand by melting the hydrogen bond that holds the DNA molecule together thus enabling each strand to be copied while the telomerase acts by preventing the telomere from been deleted during elongation.

g Describe the structure of Hemoglobin. Does the binding of oxygen involve the direct interaction with the polypeptide chain
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Hemoglobin is an iron-containing protein present in the blood that functions for transportation of oxygen to different body cells..

Each hemoglobin molecule have tetrahedral structure consist of four heme groups surrounded by a globin group. Heme, is composed of porphyrin (ringlike organic structure) which is attched to an iron atom. There are four iron atoms in each molecule of hemoglobin that binds with four oxygen atoms and globin carry two linked pair of polypeptide chain.

The oxygen reversibly binds with the polypeptide chain and the process called oxygenation.
