Answer: Replication is called semiconservative because each of the original strand is is used as a template for the synthesis of a new strand
Explanation: DNA is a double-stranded helix containing two antiparallel strands that are complementary to each other.
Replication is the process of making identical copies of a DNA molecule. Before replication begins, the double-stranded DNA is first unwound by helicase so that each strand will serve as a template for new strand synthesis.
DNA replication is semiconservative because each DNA strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new strand, producing two new DNA molecules each one with one new strand and one strand.
Saved and used in the new strand
The difference between butterflies and moths is a lot like the difference between frogs and toads. There are some rules of thumb you can follow to tell them apart, but there are also exceptions to those rules. Next, we'll look at exactly what makes a butterfly different from the moth and what clubs and feathers have to do with it.
Answer:
DNA → TACCATGGAATTACT
RNA → AUGGUACCUUAAUGA
PROTEIN → Methionine-Valine-Proline-Stop codon-Stop codon (AUG GUA CCU UAA UGA)
Explanation:
In nucleic acids (i.e., DNA and RNA), base complementarity refers to the interaction between antiparallel strands. In the double helix DNA molecule, adenine always interacts with thymine (uracil in RNA), while cytosine always interacts with guanine. Moreover, amino acids are encoded by codons, i.e., triplets of nucleotides in the messenger RNA (mRNA). Finally, stop codons are triplets of mRNA nucleotides (e.g., UAG, UAA, UGA) that indicates the end of the protein-coding sequence.
