The release of pyrophosphate from the incoming nucleotide, and then hydrolysis of the pyrophosphate to inorganic phosphate provides energy for the addition of nucleotide onto a DNA strand.
Nucleotides are linked together by a condensation event that yields a tiny, stable molecule. But the released molecule is pyrophosphate, not water. A good amount of free energy is released when water is added to pyrophosphate.
The high-energy link between the ejected beta and gamma phosphates stores the energy for each incoming nucleotide's addition. The subsequent hydrolysis that occurs drives the process. A substantially greater quantity of energy is released when two phosphates are separated into individual phosphates.

The correct answer is false, only one sperm usually reaches the egg for fertilization.
Answer:
I think it's not because of the water we use it's the water we have.
Explanation:
Because our planet is made up of 75% water it is naturally the first thing to recognize.
A substrate fits into the active site of an enzyme like a lock and key. The substrate has a certain shape that matches or is very similar to the shape of the enzyme so it's the perfect fit, like "a lock and key."
