An opaque object is any object that is not transparent (allowing all light to pass through it), or translucent (allowing some light to pass through it.) Knowing this we can auto-matically dismiss option D),B), and C) because these all let some form of light through them so our answer would then be A) because light does not pass through wood like it would the others.
Answer:
d. DNA polymerase begins adding nucleotides at the 5' end of the template
Explanation:
Polymerase DNA always works in one direction, synthesizing the new 5' to 3' oriented chains and adding nucleotides to the 3' end of a new synthesis chain by forming phosphodiester bonds between the phosphate of a nucleotide and the sugar of the anterior nucleotide.
Because DNA polymerase only acts in a 5' to 3' direction, replication along a chain, the leading chain, occurs continuously. The synthesis of the opposite chain, the delayed chain, occurs discontinuously because the DNA polymerase must wait for the replication fork to open. Over the delayed chain, short segments of DNA called Okazaki fragments (named after Reiji and Tsuneko Okazaki, the scientists who discovered these fragments) are synthesized as polymerase DNA works out of the replication fork. Ligase DNA catalyzes the covalent bonds between Okazaki fragments in the delayed chain to ensure there are no gaps in the phosphodiester skeleton. Finally, the first ones are removed and these gaps are filled by the DNA polymerase.
The plasma membrane has a double layer of phospholipids with proteins dispersed throughout. These proteins help increase the durability of the membrane, as well as help with filtration.
