Answer: Replication is called semiconservative because each of the original strand is is used as a template for the synthesis of a new strand
Explanation: DNA is a double-stranded helix containing two antiparallel strands that are complementary to each other.
Replication is the process of making identical copies of a DNA molecule. Before replication begins, the double-stranded DNA is first unwound by helicase so that each strand will serve as a template for new strand synthesis.
DNA replication is semiconservative because each DNA strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new strand, producing two new DNA molecules each one with one new strand and one strand.
Saved and used in the new strand
Answer: B
Explanation:
Mitosis produces two diploid (2n) somatic cells that are genetically identical to each other and the original parent cell, whereas meiosis produces four haploid (n) gametes that are genetically unique from each other and the original parent (germ) cell.
Answer:
Diploid cells are like daughter cells coming from a mother cell called a haploid cell. So the more daughter cells are born, the greater the chance of getting hybrids and creating more diversity on the genetic races existing. In this case, the answer would have to be honeybees.

Answer:
Penicillin binds and inhibits bacterial enzyme DD-transpeptidase.
Explanation:
Penicillin is made up of 4 rings of β-lactam and acts by binding to DD-transpeptidase of bacteria. The DD-transpeptidase facilitates the cross-linking of the peptidoglycan cell wall of bacteria. This leads to malformation of the protective cell wall of the bacteria and causes it to lyze and die.
Receptors detect changes in the environment. For a stimulus to elicit a response, certain cells must have an appropriate receptor. Stimulation of the receptor initiates a specific signal pathway.
