1.) mitosis is a cell of duplication. Where one cell divides into 2 genetically identical daughter cell
Developing crops that are more resistant to attack by pets, is the most important contribution of genetic Engineering to the practice of selective breeding.
Answer:
<u>b. synthesizes new DNA only in the 5' to 3' direction.</u>
Explanation:
DNA Polymerase III is involved in replication of DNA, it is involved in the proofreading of the replication mistakes by activity reading 3' to 5' and synthesizing 5' to 3' . It can add nucleotides to the strand at the rate of about 1000 nucleotides per second.
Answer:
Natural selection
Explanation:
Natural populations have variations. Organisms of a population have various genetic traits. Some of these genetic variations make the organisms better suited to the prevailing environmental conditions. These organisms are more likely to produce more progeny. Over generations, the frequency of the beneficial genetic traits increases in the population due to the higher reproductive success of the organisms with these genetic traits.
This process of differential fitness of organisms of a population where the organisms with adaptive genetic traits have survival and reproductive benefits is called natural selection.
