Answer:
When helicase mutations occur, problems in DNA replication are found. The helicases are proteins that open the 2 strands of DNA to initiate the duplication, they are responsible for breaking the hydrogen bonds between the two DNA chains, thus separating the chains, also they have the function of repairing DNA mutations, if there is mutation in the gene that encodes them, various functions will be absent in the cell.
It is thigmotropism because it is not affected by gravity or light.
Tides and planetary orbits are caused by the moon
Photosynthesis allows plants, algae and certain bacteria to turn sunlight into chemical energy. The amazing feat is achieved because sunlight can fuel a reaction between water and carbon dioxide that, in turn, produces carbohydrates (simple sugars) and oxygen.

Answer:
a structure composed of several proteins that associate with the centromere region of a chromosome and that can bind to spindle microtubules
Explanation:
Kinetochores have vvery important role in the cell division-mitosis.
During the metaphase of mitosis, spindle fibers attach to kinetochores. Some of the microtubules bind to kinetochore (kinetochore microtubules) while other don’t: they connect with the microtubules from the opposite pole, stabilizing the spindle.
During the anaphase, kinetochore microtubules pull chromosomes toward poles, helping the sister chromatids separate from each other.
