1. The enzyme DNA helicase breaks the hydrogen bonds between bases on the two polynucleotide DNA strands. This makes the helix unwind to form two single strands.
2. Each original strand acts as a template for a new one. Complementary base pairing means that free DNA are attracted to their complimentary exposed bases on each original template strand; A with T; C with G.
3. The enzyme DNA polymerase joins the nucleotides of the new strand together via condensation reactions. Hydrogen bonds form between the bases on the original and new strands

Masteriza [31]

In much of a digestive tract such as the human gastrointestinal tract, smooth muscle tissue contracts in sequence to produce a peristaltic wave, which propels a ball of food (called a bolus while in the esophagus and upper gastrointestinal tract and chyme in the stomach) along the tract.

Cellular respiration continues in the mitochondria of the cell with the _____________ cycle and the electron transport chain
malfutka [58]

Answer:

Cellular respiration continues in the mitochondria of the cell with the <u>Krebs</u> cycle and the electron transport chain.

Explanation:

The Krebs cycle is an important part of the cellular respiration process where —from energetic substrate such as carbohydrates, lipids and eventually proteins— Acetyl-CoA is obtained, whose oxidation produces energy in the form of ATP.

Both cellular respiration and Krebs cycle reactions occur in the mitochondria of the cells of aerobic organisms and, in conjunction with the electron transport chain, have a yield of 24 molecules of ATP for every molecule of glucose entering the system.

Define homeostasis and give an easy to understand example
cluponka [151]
Homeostasis is a temperature that your body tries to keep. It has to work harder in freezing temperatures and hotter temperatures and if your body can't sustain the right temperature (homeostasis) it will start to shut down. It keeps the organs going as humans temperature needs to be in the range of 98.6. Otherwise if you're way too hot organs could liquefy and if too cold, freeze.  hope this helped you understand :)<span />
