The answer is d. How long they take to be renewed, and by that I mean they take years and years to form again.

(03.05 MC)<br> In which of the following ways is DNA replication similar to transcription?

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: <u>D. Thymine is used in replication while uracil is used in transcription.</u>

Explanation:

Genetic information is stored in double-helixes of DNA molecules (Doxyribonuclease). In replication, two daughter strands of DNA are copied from the parent strand, while in replication, instructions stored within DNA are copied into a different form, called mRNA or messenger RNA.

Nucleotides are monomers comprising DNA, a nucleic acid that along with RNA, a ribose sugar-containing nucleotide, acts as a storage molecule to encode proteins. 5-carbon deoxyribose or ribose sugar, phosphate and one of four nitrogen bases are found in nucleotides:

Adenine (A)

Guanine (G)

Cytosine (C)

Thymine (T).

Uracil (U) found in RNA

While <em>both contain four nucleotide bases, </em> in RNA, uracil replaces thymine... The DNA nucleotides are involved in replication while RNA nucleotides drive transcription,

Immediately following the arrival of the stimulus at the axon terminal there is a short period called the ________ period during

slega [8]

Answer:

Immediately following the arrival of the stimulus at the axon terminal there is a short period called the latent period.

Explanation:

When a stimulus reaches the terminal of an axon, a period known as the latent period begins. This period has a short duration and during it it is possible to observe the blockage of new stimuli in the nerve fiber. Thus, the new stimuli fail to trigger an impulse and no muscle tension to be observed.

While the latent period is not finished, the neurotransmitter is released through the action of exocytosis that moves until it gets access to the receptor capable of activating the muscle cell.
