MITOSIS is used to generate more cells. It is a kind of cell division that the new cells are identical.
Answer:
DNA ligase
Explanation:
DNA replication is an enzyme mediated, 3-step process during which the DNA molecule produces a copy of itself. The 3 steps involved are as follows;
- initiation
- elongation
- termination
<em>Initiation </em>involves the unwinding of the double helix structure of the DNA using DNA helicase enzyme
<em>Elongation</em> involves binding of RNA primer to the DNA strands and addition of bases to the primer<em> </em>to elongate the new chains. Bases are added to the leading strand continuously while the lagging strand is replicated in short segments (okazaki segments).
<em>Termination</em> involves the unbinding of RNA primer and substitution of its bases by DNA bases. The Okazaki fragments are then joined together using the DNA ligase enzyme.
<em>The short, numerous segments of DNA observed in the mixture is the Okazaki fragments of the lagging strand. This is due to the absence of the enzyme involved in the joining of these fragments.</em>
Hence, the answer is DNA ligase.
Answer:
For the tRNA anticodon CCA the corresponding codon is GGU, which codes for the amino acid Glycine (Gly).
Explanation:
Transfer RNA or tRNA is responsible for driving the right amino acid into protein synthesis, once the mRNA codon has been translated by the ribosome. It is for that reason that each mRNA codon must have a complementary tRNA anticodon.
The RNA pairing rules is that each nitrogenous base has a complementary base, so:
- Adenine is complementary with uracil A=U
- Cytosine is complementary with Guanine C=G
In this case, it can be seen that:
- <em>For the anti-codon: CCA</em>
- <em>Codon: GGU</em>
- <em>Aminoacid: Gly</em>
