Biology

storchak [24]3 years ago

DNA replication initiates at specific points, called origins, where the DNA double helix is unwound. A short segment of RNA, called a primer, is then synthesized and acts as a starting point for new DNA synthesis. An enzyme called DNA polymerase next begins replicating the DNA by matching bases to the original strand.

When Charles Darwin published his radical theory of evolution by natural selection in 1859 it was attacked by many early biologi
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

Empirical evidence of his ideas

Explanation:

The scientific process involves the formulation of hypotheses that enable to answer questions about the real world, and then to carry out experiments or observations that are used to confirm (or reject) such predictions. In the last 160 years, Darwin's ideas on 'descent with modification' have constantly been subjected to experimental assessment, and obtained data confirmed his observations. For example, molecular evidence based on the DNA and RNA -which constitute the genetic material of all living organisms- has shown the conservation of this process. In consequence, molecular evidence has been used to construct 'evolutionary' phylogenetic trees from DNA/RNA sequences. Moreover, evidence in genetics has shown the critical role played by mutations in the mechanism of natural selection proposed by Darwin, thus also confirming his theories. These are only some examples, and supporting evidence confirming Darwin's ideas has been collected from different research fields ranging from ecology to molecular biology.

A spinal-epidural, also called a(n) __________ epidural, is a system of administering continuous doses of anesthetic to a woman
Rudik [331]

The epidural anesthesia is a method of pain relief, which is used during the labor pain. It is a well known regional anesthesia. It works by acting as an analgesic, which means a substance that eases the pain, a complete anesthesia or loss of feeling does not occur in the case of epidural anesthesia. It blocks the nerve signals from the lower spinal segments. It is also known as spinal epidural anesthesia or lumbar epidural anesthesia.
