Answer:
Explanation:
DNA polymerase is an enzyme that helps in the synthesis of new strands of DNA. It is found in both prokaryote and eukaryotes. In prokaryotes, there are 3 types of DNA polymerase and more DNA polymerase found in eukaryotes.
The 3 types of DNA polymerase are DNA polymerase I, DNA polymerase II, DNA polymerase III. The DNA pol I and DNA pol II helps in DNA repair rather than DNA replication. The DNA pol III is the major enzyme that initiates the replication.
DNA polymerase III is a multisubunit enzyme that functions as a dimer of these multiple subunits. The DNA polymerase enzyme has 3 significant enzymatic activities -
All DNA polymerase direct the synthesis of DNA from 3' to 5' end.
It possesses 3' to 5' exonuclease activity. It also helps in proofreading activity by replacing the incorrect nucleotides with the correct base sequence.
Some DNA polymerase has a 5' to 3' exonuclease activity. It is found in the lagging strand.
DNA polymerase is not able to initiate DNA synthesis alone. They need a free 3' end, where the enzyme can add new nucleotides. It means they require 2 primers to initiate the DNA replication in both the direction.
The strands act as complementary to the DNA polymerase. The DNA polymerase adds new strands continuously in 5' to 3' direction in the leading strand. While in lagging strand short fragments of DNA formed. Later they attached by DNA ligase.
DNA polymerase also needs RNA polymerase in some cases to start replication. Such a process is called reverse transcription.
This question is supposed to have a table showing species member tested and the type of cells tested and the results. Based on this table, the species member that would be unlikely to pass the gene mutation on to its offspring is species member 4: [Body cells (+) and Sperm (-)] Hope this helps.
Answer:
False
"The energy contained in the food we eat is used to synthesize the energy that directly powers all of our cellular activities".
Explanation:
The food we eat undoubtedly contains energy. This energy is stored in the bonds of the molecules that make up the food. However, the food undergoes the process of digestion to yield glucose (a sugar). This glucose sugar is used in the process of CELLULAR RESPIRATION to synthesize a form of chemical energy usable by cells called ATP.
ATP or Adenosine triphosphate is a molecule that stores chemical energy in living cells. It is the molecule that directly powers all of our cellular activities. Hence, the statement in this question is FALSE. The correct statement should be "The energy contained in the food we eat is used to synthesize the energy that directly powers all of our cellular activities".
Answer:
Photosynthesis
Explanation:
This is a role in the cycling of matter and flow of energy into and out of organisms. The flow of energy and cycling of matter can be traced.
