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!
Amoeba survives in marine water due to its osmotic
The right option is; c. a salinity of less than 1%
Freshwater biomes have a salinity of less than 1%
The freshwater biome is a large community of plant and animals that live in water bodies with a salinity of less than 1%. Fresh water biomes include streams, rivers, ponds, lakes, and some wetlands. The fresh water biomes cover about 20% of the earth and they contain several species of fish and animals such as frogs, crocodiles and turtles.
Viruses are bundles of genetic material enclosed in a capsid.
Answer:
Food webs can transfer energy because the proteins from an animal can go on, this benefits ecosystems.
