<span>A light year refers to a very big amount of distance and is a measurement termed as an astronomical unit of measure. When you say that a galaxy is 5,000 light years away we are actually describing the speed of light within a year. One light year is actually equivalent to 9, 500, 000, 000, 000 kilometers. Just imagine how big or how far that galaxy is when you multiply those kilometers by 5,000?</span>

Select all the correct answers.<br> Which two statements are true for the leading strand in DNA?
Ghella [55]

Question: Which two statements are true for the leading strand in DNA?

It is synthesized toward the replication fork.

It is synthesized in the 3′ to 5′ direction.

It is synthesized away from the replication fork.

It is synthesized in the 5′ to 3′ direction.

Answer:

The two statements that are true for the leading strand in DNA are "it is synthesized toward the replication fork and it is synthesized in the 5′ to 3′ direction"

Explanation:

Leading strand in DNA is the strand of new DNA being synthesized in the same direction where the replication fork is moving. The movement of replication fork allows the access of template for the new DNA. The DNA synthesis is continuous in the leading strand. It is synthesized in the 5' to 3' as DNA synthesis always takes place in this direction. This is because dNTP ( deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate) provides free 3' OH group where new dNTP can be added by the enzyme DNA polymerase.

Breathing into and out of a paper bag for a long period of time will lead to?
Ilya [14]

Breathing into and out of a paper bag for a long period of time will lead to respiratory acidosis.

<h3>What is respiratory acidosis?</h3>
  • When the lungs are unable to expel all of the carbon dioxide the body produces, a condition known as respiratory acidosis develops.
  • Body fluids, particularly the blood, become too acidic as a result.
  • The main causes of respiratory acidosis are inadequate ventilation and carbon dioxide buildup.
  • The main issue is an increase in arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO2) and a decline in the arterial bicarbonate to arterial pCO2 ratio, which causes a drop in blood pH.
  • When there is acute respiratory acidosis, the body initially tries to make up for it.
  • If the acidosis lasts more than 12 hours, a reaction known as metabolic compensation2 takes place.
  • By increasing the release of hydrogen ions through ammonium, the kidneys will lower the blood's acidity.
  • Too much carbon dioxide in the body can result in general symptoms including headache, exhaustion, and twitching muscles.
  • Frequently, it goes away fast on its own.
  • But in cases of severe hypercapnia, the body is unable to return to a stable CO2 level, and the symptoms are more severe.
