The process of DNA replication

Biology
1 answer:
Molodets [167]2 years ago
7 0

Answer: Replication occurs in three major steps: the opening of the double helix and separation of the DNA strands, the priming of the template strand, and the assembly of the new DNA segment. During separation, the two strands of the DNA double helix uncoil at a specific location called the origin. Several enzymes and proteins then work together to prepare, or prime, the strands for duplication. Finally, a special enzyme called DNA polymerase organizes the assembly of the new DNA strands. The following description of this three-stage process applies generally to all cells, but specific variations within the process may occur depending on organism and cell type.

The nucleus of "Lead-208", 208 82 Pb, has 82 protons within a sphere of radius 6.34×10-15 m. Each electric charge has a value of
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

2.94 × 10²⁰ N/C

Explanation:

Given that:  

The nucleus of "Lead-208 has 82 protons,

with a radius (r) 6.34×10-15 m, &

each electric charge has a value of 1.60218 × 10^-19 C

∴ The formula for calculating an electrical field at the surface of the nucleus is:

 E=\frac{k*q}{r^2}  

Substituting our values into the equation above, we have;

 E = \frac{8.98755*10^8*82(1.60218*10^{-19C)}}{(6.34*10^{-15}_m)^2}

E = 2.93870499×10²⁰ N/C

E ≅ 2.94 × 10²⁰ N/C

Explain how the result of meiosis and cytokinesis affects inherited traits
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

Meiosis is a type of cell division in which a single cell is divided into four daughter cells having half number of chromosome while cytokinesis is the division of cytoplasm.

Meiosis occurs only in sex cells which are responsible for the formation of new organism. Traits are transferred from parents to the offspring through the process of sexual reproduction. In sexual reproduction, sex cells i. e. sperm cells of male fuse with egg cell of female forming a zygote which turns into a new organism and traits are transferred from one generation to another.

In your own words Describe how autotrophs and heterotrophs obtain energy. please this answer must be at least 150 words any one
blsea [12.9K]

The autotrophs are the primary producer in the food chain and they are the ones who initiate the food chain. They produce food by using sunlight or sometimes chemical energy or reactions. They primarily use carbon dioxide, sunlight and water to form sugars or carbohydrates which become their energy source. They use the process of photosynthesis or chemosynthesis to generate food. Examples of autotrophs are green plants, green algae, bacteria.

Heterotrophs cannot make their food via sunlight or other inorganic sources and hence are dependent on the autotrophs or other animals. The heterotrophs have been ranked as secondary and tertiary consumers and cannot be producers.  They consume the organic products made by autotrophs to obtain energy for various metabolic and biological activities. The heterotrophs can be herbivore, carnivore, fungi, parasitic plants.

Some are photo-hetrotrophs,  who use light as energy but cannot use carbon  dioxide as the carbon source since they cannot fix the carbon like autotrophs.
