Answer:

DNA replication

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process whereby the genetic material (DNA) duplicates itself into two identical copies. This process must occur prior to any cellular division (meiosis or mitosis) in order to ascertain that each daughter cell gets an even and correct amount of DNA.

The process of DNA replication begins with the unwinding of the double stranded DNA molecule into two single strands of DNA. One strand called leading strand runs from 3'-5' while the other strand runs from 5'-3'. However, DNA replication proceeds in the 5'-3' direction.

Lotions applied during winter season moisturize the skin very quickly. What could be the reason for this?

MrRissso [65]

The right answer is D.

The absorption of molecules at the level of the skin is carried out by passive diffusion for the molecules of low molecular weight (lower than 400 Da), the skin being covered with a lipoprotein film rich in water by its stratum corneum, rendering it little-permeable.

This absorption may be variable according to factors related to the skin such as stratum corneum's thickness, the state of hydration, the presence of cutaneous lesions or individual variations.

External factors may also modulate percutaneous absorption such as contact time, iontophoresis or the presence of specific adjuvants.

Different microbes grow in a wide variety of environmental conditions; however, most have preferences for certain temperatures,

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

this is a TRUE statement.

Explanation:

Different microbes grow in a wide variety of environmental conditions; however, most have preferences for certain temperatures, pH, and atmospheric gases because although microbes are widespread in their occurrence,they are found almost everywhere,in the air,water,soil,food,decaying matter,oil deposits,in plants etc.

but their number and their types vary according to the locality and environmental conditions.

Although, some microbes are always present and contribute towards natural flora BUT besides this others are present in specific environments such as some in hot springs bearing very HIGH TEMPERATURE RANGES for example: Thermus aquaticus.

some of them inhabit the acidic or alkaline soil feeding on HUMUS.

Most of the microbes prefer ATMOSPHERIC GASES i.e some require oxygen for their survival .For example: Pseudomonas.

some don't require O2 for survival i.e Spirochete.

IN SHORT, most of the microbes have preferences for various environmental conditions.
