Answer:

DNA can replicate itself because its two strands are complementary. This means that one strand can be used as a template to make the other strand. It happens right before cell division via mitosis or meiosis so that each new daughter cell can have a complete genome.

Before replication can start, the double strands of DNA need to separate from each other. An enzyme called DNA helicase breaks the hydrogen bonds that connect the two strands, allowing them to come apart.

The point where this unzipping starts is called an origin point. Eukaryotic DNA can have more than one origin point, but prokaryotes can only have one.

The points where DNA is currently unwinding are called replication forks.

The most basic definition of cellular respiration is that it is cells breaking down food to make energy. True or false?
fredd [130]

Answer:

<u>True</u>

Explanation:

In cells, energy is obtained from food through the process of cellular respiration. In mitochondria, this occurs through aerobic respiration- here, cells breakdown sugars like glucose into carbon dioxide and water and energy in the form of ATP or adenosine triphosphate.

In cellular aerobic respiration:

C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≅38 ATP

Please help i give 48 points !!!which correctly lists the three layers in which water moves easily
Aliun [14]

soil, rock, organic layer

Explanation:

Permeability is the ability of a layer of rock to transmit fluid such as oil or water

The factors that affect the permeability of a rock layer includes the sizes of the rock particles, the ratio of the available voids to the solid mass of the rock, the presence of trapped air and the presence of organic matter

Rocks such as gravels, and  sparingly cemented sands have high permeability

The most impermeable of the options are granite and clay which for granite has large particle mass and contain no voids while clay has very fine particles packed together with little room for water

Therefore, water moves easily between layers  soil, rock, organic layer
