8 0
A type of rock that contains low density minerals such as quartz are igneous rocks.

Qualities of igneous rocks :
1) Felsic igneous rocks are light in color and are mostly made up of feldspars and silicates.
2) Common minerals found in felsic rock include quartz, plagioclase feldspar, potassium feldspar (orthoclase), and muscovite.
3) They may contain up to 15% mafic mineral crystals and have a low density.

Hope I can help you :)

Can life subsist on anything else but water?
guapka [62]
In the purest sense, no you cannot live without water. Your body is made up of an estimated sixty percent water and it is vital for life functions. You can live for approximately three to four days without water. However, when you are asking if you can subsist on anything else, many things that you might choose do in fact contain water. Other drinks, even sodas have water content, as do many fruits and vegetables. It is possible to get enough hydration from sources other than pure water, but not to survive without it entirely.

Why can't both strands of DNA be replicated at the same time?
saw5 [17]

Answer: DNA is a molecule made up of two strands, twisted around each other in a double helix shape. The two strands are complementary which have a 5 prime end and a 3 prime end. To understand this question you must first understand the steps that follow.

DNA Replication:

<u>Step one: </u>

DNA Helicase (unzips) separates the strands.

<u>Step two:</u>

DNA Primase starts the process and makes a small piece of RNA called a primer. This marks the starting point for the DNA.

<u>Step three:</u>

DNA Polymerase binds to the primer and will make the new strand of DNA. DNA Polymerase can only add DNA bases in one direction, from the 5 prime end to the 3 prime end.

  • The leading strand is made continuously.
  • The lagging strand does not run continuously because it runs in the opposite direction. Each fragment is started with an RNA primer. DNA Polymerase then adds a short row of DNA bases from the 5 prime to 3 prime direction. This results in okazaki fragments because it can only replicate in small chunks. The process is repeated.

<u>Step four:</u>

Once the new DNA is complete the enzyme exonuclease removes all the RNA primers from both strands of DNA.

<u>Step five:</u>

Another DNA Polymerase fills in the gaps that are left behind with DNA.

<u>Step six:</u>

DNA Ligase seals up the fragments in DNA, in both strands to make a continuous double strand.

<u>Final answer:</u>

DNA Replication cannot replicate at the same time due to the leading and lagging strand.

Good luck!
