Option A, geographic poles are defined by Earth's rotation, is the correct answer.

The rotation of the earth is its revolution around its own shaft. The direction of Earth's rotation is eastward. The North Pole of the Earth is the spot in the Northern Hemisphere where Earth's axle of revolution joins its surface. The South Pole is another location; where the axis of Earth's circumrotation intersects its facade, in Antarctica. The geographical poles of the North and South Poles of the Earth move a few meters over a period of few years.

The poles cannot move 10 km a year because they are connected to earth which moves way more than that

Rna primers must be present on which strand during dna synthesis?

Tanya [424]

Answer:Both on the leading strand and on each okazaki fragments of the lagging strand.

Explanation:

A primer is a short single-stranded RNA nucleotide that initiate DNA synthesis at the replication fork. Because DNA polymerase can not initiate replication on it own short strand of RNA primer synthesized by an enzyme RNA primase is needed to initiate DNA polynucleotide synthesis.

RNA primer is present on both leading and lagging strand.

RNA primer of about 10 nucleotides long are present on the leading strand and on each okazaki fragments on the lagging strand to initiate replication. The RNA primer is removed and replaced by DNA nucleotides by DNA polymerase.
