At the primer segment, the enzyme DNA polymerase polymerizes the original DNA strand. It works at the area where DNA is unwinding, called the replication fork. The nucleotides are polymerized starting at one end of the nucleotide chain, and synthesis proceeds in only one direction of the strand (the “leading” strand).

Explain over production and reproduction
Mandarinka [93]

Explanation:

<h2>Overproduction in Natural Selection </h2>

Natural selection occurs in specific populations of organisms because of several factors. It begins with overproduction. Overproduction by definition, in biology, means that each generation has more offspring than can be supported by the environment. Because of this, competition takes place for limited resources. Individuals have traits that are passed down to offspring. Some of these traits give individuals an advantage when it comes to surviving to reproduce. The organisms with these traits are more likely to live and have offspring who will inherit the helpful traits.

What is 16 nanometers to millimeters
Talja [164]

So to solve this problem, we are going to have to set up a couple unit conversions and then cancel units:

(\frac{16nm}{1})*(\frac{1x10^{-9}m}{1nm} )*(\frac{1mm}{1x10^{-3}m}  )=16x10^{-6}mm =1.6x10^{-5}mm

This method can be used to convert between many different units and is a very helpful tool for questions such as these.

What is produced by both aerobic and anaerobic respiration?.
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

During aerobic cellular respiration, glucose reacts with oxygen, forming ATP that can be used by the cell. Carbon dioxide and water are created as byproducts.

The end products of aerobic respiration are carbon dioxide, water, and energy. The end products of anaerobic respiration are acids, alcohols, gases, and energy. Explanation: Glycolysis is the common process occurs in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

What is the following steps to DNA replication on order
olganol [36]

Step 1: DNA replication begins at the origin of replication

Step 2: Helicase cuts hydrogen bonds and separates DNA in half

Step 3: Single strand binding proteins attach and keep the DNA molecules separated.

Step 4: The replication fork is formed with the leading and lagging strands

Step 5: In the leading strand RNA primase moves along nucleotides and coats with a RNA primer.

Step 6: DNA polymerase attaches post primase to DNA nucleotides and moves along towards the replication fork in 5 prime --- 3 prime direction. It adds nucleotides to the half DNA molecules

Step 7: Another type of polymerase replaces the primer with DNA nucleotides so all DNA is there

Step 8: Ligase stitches up the gaps.

Hope this helps!!!

If it does Rate, Thank, and MAKE ME BRAINLIEST. :ppp
