A scientist investigated DNA replication in two groups of cells, labeled A and B. She injected radioactively labeled nucleotides

into cells of each group and allowed DNA replication to begin. When replication was halfway completed, she injected a drug into the cells to stop replication. She then examined the cells to determine the distribution of the newly-synthesized DNA. She found each cell of group A had many segments of new DNA in its nucleus, while each cell of group B had a single segment of new DNA in its cytoplasm. What can the researcher conclude about the cells?

Answer:

A is a eukaryotic cell while B is a prokaryotic cell

Explanation:

The researcher can conclude that <u>cell A is eukaryotic while cell B is prokaryotic.</u>

In eukaryotic cells, the <u>DNA is located majorly in the nucleus and the replication of the DNA happens in the nucleus</u>. Hence, it is only logical to find segments of new DNA in the nucleus of cell A during replication.

<u>Prokaryotic cells, however, lack a nucleus</u>. Their DNAs lie freely within the cytoplasm. This thus means that replication can only happen in the cytoplasm. Hence, it follows logically to find a new DNA segment in the cytoplasm of cell B.

Monozygotic twins are __________, while dizygotic twins are __________. the result of mitosis; the result of meiosis fraternal;
Marrrta [24]
I think the correct answer would be the last option. Monozygotic twins are identical, while dizygotic twins are fraternal. Identical twins involves developing from one zygote where it splits, forming two embryos so that the twins would have more or less the same characteristics. This type of twins can share the same amniotic sac depending on the time the fertilized egg is divided. On the other hand, fraternal twins developed from two eggs wherein they are being fertilized by two different sperm cells resulting to twins which has different characteristics. For this type, the two fertilized eggs would develop separate amniotic sacs.

Which of the following characteristics is directly related to the coding of a single amino acid during the process of translatio
likoan [24]

Answer:

C) the three-base sequence of mRNA

Explanation:

Three-base sequence of mRNA is called codon. One codon specifies a single amino acid. There are 64 codons in eukaryotic cells and three of them are stop codons (non-coding).

tRNA have three-base sequence called anticodon which is complementary to specific codon. During the process of translation codon and anticodon are paired which leads to addition of amino acid to growing polypeptide chain. Newly added amino acid is carried by tRNA.
