Answer:

D) adhesion

Explanation:

Adhesion is a water property that allows water molecules to adhere to each other. This can occur thanks to its polarity. Water tends to attract and be attracted to other polar molecules. This attraction between water molecules and other polar molecules is called adhesion. When the slope occurs the water surface becomes curved, as shown in the figure.

Water molecules do not bind with nonpolar molecules, ie there is no adhesion. Therefore it is not evenly distributed on a waxed surface, and forms separate droplets on them, as the wax is nonpolar.

During the replication of DNA, __________.
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is c. both strands of a molecule act as templates.

Explanation:

DNA replication is a semi-conservative process which means that each strand of DNA acts as a template strand to synthesize the new DNA strand. DNA polymerase is the enzyme that helps in the production of new DNA strands by adding nucleotides at 3' end of the growing DNA stretch.

One DNA strand is called the leading strand and the other lagging strand. The leading strand is synthesized continuously but lagging strands are synthesized in a discontinuous way.  

So due to discontinuous replication of lagging strand small fragments of DNA are synthesized which are called Okazaki fragments. Then these fragments are sealed by ligase enzymes. So the correct answer is c.

Is formed when one or more than one atom bonds to another atom.
ludmilkaskok [199]

Explanation:A special case of polar forces occurs in what is called the hydrogen bond. In many situations, when hydrogen forms a covalent bond with another atom , electrons move toward that atom, and the hydrogen acquires a slight positive charge. The hydrogen, in turn, attracts another atom, thereby forming a kind of bridge between the two.
