Answer: DNA is a molecule made up of two strands, twisted around each other in a double helix shape. The two strands are complementary which have a 5 prime end and a 3 prime end. To understand this question you must first understand the steps that follow.
DNA Replication:
<u>Step one: </u>
DNA Helicase (unzips) separates the strands.
<u>Step two:</u>
DNA Primase starts the process and makes a small piece of RNA called a primer. This marks the starting point for the DNA.
<u>Step three:</u>
DNA Polymerase binds to the primer and will make the new strand of DNA. DNA Polymerase can only add DNA bases in one direction, from the 5 prime end to the 3 prime end.
- The leading strand is made continuously.
- The lagging strand does not run continuously because it runs in the opposite direction. Each fragment is started with an RNA primer. DNA Polymerase then adds a short row of DNA bases from the 5 prime to 3 prime direction. This results in okazaki fragments because it can only replicate in small chunks. The process is repeated.
<u>Step four:</u>
Once the new DNA is complete the enzyme exonuclease removes all the RNA primers from both strands of DNA.
<u>Step five:</u>
Another DNA Polymerase fills in the gaps that are left behind with DNA.
<u>Step six:</u>
DNA Ligase seals up the fragments in DNA, in both strands to make a continuous double strand.
<u>Final answer:</u>
DNA Replication cannot replicate at the same time due to the leading and lagging strand.
Good luck!
A single-celled organism floats freely and lives independently. Its single cell is able to carry out all the processes of life without any help from other cells.
• A biofilm is a thin layer of bacteria that sticks to a surface. Cells in a biofilm are all alike, but they may play different roles, such as taking in nutrients or making the "glue" that sticks the biofilm to the surface. The sticky plaque that forms on teeth is a biofilm of bacterial cells.
• Some single-celled organisms, such as algae, live in colonies. A colony is an organized structure composed of many cells, like the Volvox sphere in Figure 3.21. Volvox are algae that live in colonies of hundreds of cells. All of the cells in the colony live and work cooperatively. For example, they can coordinate the movement of their flagella, allowing them to swim together through the water as though they were part of a single organism.
A multicellular organism consists of many cells and has different types of cells that are specialized for various functions. All the cells work together and depend on each other to carry out the life processes of the organism. Individual cells are unable to survive on their own.
i got this off of quizlet so i hope this helps you. Also this isnt plagarizim bc i gave you where i got it from.
Answer:
They have a small effect
Explanation:
Because when you consider the size of the earth, tornadoes have a small effect on earth, that's your answer?
For starters, plant cells have a tough Cell Wall made from cellulose, while animal cells only have the thin Cell Membrane. Also, plant cells have Plastids, while animal cells do not.
The primary organelle which is present in plant cells but not in animal cells, however, are the Chloroplasts, which allow plant cells to carry on the natural process of photosynthesis, by which plants make their own food using sunlight, water, and nutrients from the soil.
Hope that helped =)
Estuaries, salt marshes and mangrove forests have more variation in salinity than other marine habitats like the ocean and sea floor because of the environment present in these locations. They are considered to be unique ecosystems in semi-sheltered areas near the ocean coastline. These areas often serve as nursing grounds where young marine life is protected during development.
