Telomerase is involved in adding DNA to the end of the lagging strand.
At the ends of linear chromosomes (telomeres), telomerase uses its built-in RNA template to extend the parent DNA template near the end of the lagging strand, providing room for an RNA primer so that lagging strand synthesis can be completed to the end of the chromosome
There are three ways in which exogenous dna can be
introduced into a bacterial genome. These are; transduction, transformation and
conjugation. Transduction is the introduction of exogenous material into bacteria
by viruses; conjugation is exchange of genetic material between bacteria sexual
through reproduction; while transformation
is uptake of exogenous dna by bacteria, from its surrounding, through the
bacterial membrane.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Meiosis is the kind of cell division that results in the production of daughter cells with each cell having half number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Meiosis is the cell division employed by reproductive cells to produce gametes/sex cells. Meiosis occurs in two stages i.e. Meiosis I and II. The chromosome number reduces by half in gametes in order to ensure that after fertilization of both male and female gamete, the resulting organism has the correct set of chromosomes. e.g diploid organism produces haploid gametes which fuses to produce a diploid organism again.
Mitosis is another type of cell division that results in identical daughter cells. They are identical in the sense that they possess the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell that divided. For example, a diploid cell undergoes mitosis to produce two diploid daughter cells.
Answer:
8.31 cm/s²
Explanation:
To calculate the acceleration from the mass and force, we do
acceleration (m/s²)= force (N) / mass (kg)
We first have to convert pounds to kilograms.
1 pound = 0.454 kg.
132.6 pounds = 0.454 x 132.6
= 60.2 kg
acceleration = 5 / 60.2kg
acceleration - 0.0083 m/s²
Convert to cm
acceleration = 8.31 cm/s²
