Answer:
The enzyme Topoisomerase functions to prevent super-coiling of the DNA molecule during replication.
Explanation:
- During replication, topoisomerases are required to relieve the positive supercoiling that arises from DNA unwiding mediated by Helicases.
- A DNA topoisomerase is a nuclease that breaks a phosphodiester bond in a DNA strand.
- All topoiomereases are classified as Topoisomerase I and Topoisomerase II depending on whether they cleave one or two strands respectively.
- Topoisomerase I do not use ATP as a source of energy, the reaction is powered by energy stored in super-coiled DNA.
- Topoisomerase II also do not require external energy but it utilizes ATP hydrolysis to drive conformation changes in the protein during reaction cycle.
Answer:
biotic
Explanation:
Some examples of limiting factors are biotic, like food, mates, and competition with other organisms for resources. Others are abiotic, like space, temperature, altitude, and amount of sunlight available in an environment

Question is a bit confusing but if i read it right there could be two answers:
genetics
or nutrition
Answer: B
Explanation: A closed system can be defined as a system that does not allow for an exchange of matter with its surroundings.
An estuary where fresh water and ocean water mix is not a good example of a closed system because fresh water and ocean water mix out in the open and matter is exchanged.
A living single-called organism such as phytoplankton does not constitute as a closed system because in order for the phytoplankton to be considered alive it needs to interact with its surroundings i.e light from the sun so photosynthesis (converting light energy into chemical energy to be used by organism) can occur. This also happens out in the open
A river that flows into the ocean does not fit into the closed system definition. This is because a river that flows into the ocean allows for itself (matter) to mix with that of the ocean in an open space (rivermouth).
Therefore option B is the answer because it fits the definition. A chemical reaction within the deep ocean organisms that allows them to glow happens within (inside) the organism, making this system closed, hence there is no exchange of matter with surroundings.
