When a plant bends toward sunlight, the bending is an example of which characteristic of life?

Among the seven characteristics in life, the one should be sensitivity. It is where living organisms detect and react to stimulus or changes to the environment.

Specifically among plants, this change is called a tropic response, or tropism for short. Plants reacts to aspects like light, gravity, or water.

This response is controlled by a plant hormone called auxin. Auxin is produced at the tip of the plant, and they diffuse among the plant. The auxin accumulates at the side of the plant that doesn't receive as much sunlight, and auxin can stimulate its growth on that side so the plant bends. That's how a plant bending works.

Anyways, the answer to the question should be sensitivity.

The correct answer is: DNA polymerase is a directional enzyme that synthesizes leading and lagging strands during replication

DNA polymerase is an enzyme that synthesizes DNA during the DNA replication by adds nucleotides to the 3’ end of a primer. This means that the new chain is formed in a 5’ → 3’ direction.

Because double-stranded DNA is antiparallel, DNA polymerase moves in opposite directions on the two strands-leading and lagging strand. The leading strand is copied continuously since DNA polymerase is moving towards the replication fork. The lagging strand is copied discontinuous. DNA polymerase is moving away from the replication fork (and helicase that separates the strands), so it must constantly return to copy newly separated stretches of DNA. So, the lagging strand is copied as a series of short fragments-Okazaki fragments that are joined together by a combination of DNA pol I and DNA ligase.

In A and B we see the number of phenotypes that can be found, in a case of polygenic inheritance, depends on the number of allele pairs involved

<h3>Genetic distance</h3>

The knowledge of the genetic distance between genotypes of a population of interest is important for a breeding program, as it allows the organization of germplasm and a more efficient sampling of genotypes.

<h3>Gaussian</h3>

The normal distribution is a very useful model in statistics, and it would not come as a surprise as the sum of independent effects (or not very correlated effects) should, if there were many of them, normally distribute (always subject to certain assumptions).

With this information we can conclude that in graph <u>A</u> we see a higher frequency of medium-sized individuals, showing zygosity, and in <u>B</u>, <u>heterozygosity</u>.
