Answer:
a. Ligase
b. Ligase (
it's repeated)
Explanation:
DNA synthesis begins, therefore, by synthesizing a short segment of RNA called a primer, which primer is synthesized by an enzyme called Primasa. Primasa is an RNA polymerase that uses DNA as a template. All fragments of Okazaki begin with a Primer. Subsequently, the DNA polymerase III Holoenzyme performs the synthesis of the corresponding DNA fragment until it reaches the next primer. At that time, DNA polymerase Ia replaces the DNA polymerase Holoenzyme III. The DNA polymerase I is responsible for removing the RNA primer through its 5'P-3'OH exonueotic activity and at the same time fills the hole by synthesizing DNA.
Finally, the two Okazaki fragments have to be joined, it is necessary to link the 3'OH end of a fragment with the 5'P of the next fragment. This work of sealing and joining the successive fragments is done by Ligase.
Vestigial traits are adaptations to environmental pressures which are no longer present.
homologous structures are similar structures found in different species that were present in a common ancestor.
analogous traits are similar traits found in different species that were developed independently (this process is known as convergent evolution)
Answer:
C
Explanation:
It is believed that glycolysis – the first phase of cellular respiration in eukaryotic cells- is considered an ancient biochemical process that early organisms utilized to tap the energy required for cell functions. This is because the process does not require oxygen – because early conditions on earth were anoxic before the great oxygenation event. It is after the great oxygenation event that the Krebs cycle evolved.
Answer/Explanation:
Pollution during the industrial revolution caused trees to become covered with soot, making them darker. This dark appearance meant that the peppered moth, which usually had a light colour, was clearly visible against the tree. This meant it was easier for predators to identify. As a result, their numbers decreased because they were an easier target.
However, there was also a rarer form of the moth, which was dark in colour. These were initially very rare. However, because of the change in the tree colour owing to the industrial revolution, these moths were better suited to the environment, as they were more camouflaged against the dark tree. This meant it was easier for them to avoid predators, and so they were more likely to survive to reproductive age and pass on the genes that produce the dark colour. This meant that the dark moths increased in number.
