How is inertia taking place if a penny is at rest?
Citrus2011 [14]

A penny is at rest is experiencing  inertia because it is not moving.

<h3>What is inertia?</h3>

According to Newton's first law of motion, every object at rest or uniform motion in a straight line will continue in that state unless it is acted upon by an external force. This law is also called law of inertia.

Inertia depends on mass because the more massive an object is, the more reluctant it will be to move.

Thus, a penny is at rest is experiencing  inertia because it is not moving.

Provide a summary of what happens during DNA replication using the following words: Helicase, DNA
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Please find the summary of what happens during DNA replication below

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process by which a DNA molecule is duplicated into two identical copies. It occurs in the nucleus of the cell prior to any cellular division. The process includes:

- The double stranded DNA is first unwound by an enzyme called DNA HELICASE into a replication fork consisting of two single strands of DNA.

- Another enzyme called DNA POLYMERASE binds to the DNA and begins to add NUCLEOTIDES to each strand using complementary base pairing rule i.e. A-T, G-C. To do this, short sequences of RNA called PRIMER are synthesized by an enzyme called PRIMASE, which serves as building block for DNA polymerase to act.

- However, DNA POLYMERASE can only work in the 5'-3' direction i.e. on the leading strand which runs from 3'-5' direction. Short pieces of DNA called OKAZAKI fragments are synthesized on the lagging strand, which runs from 5'-3' direction.

- An enzyme called LIGASE joins the okazaki fragments together into a whole DNA on the lagging strand.

After the replication process which follows the SEMI-CONSERVATIVE MODEL of replication, each DNA molecule will contain one old strand called PARENT STRAND and one NEW strand.
