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.

Explanation;

-The sense or sensory nervous system is a part of the nervous system responsible for processing sensory information.

-A sensory system consists of sensory neurons, neural pathways, and parts of the brain involved in sensory perception. Commonly recognized sensory systems are those for vision, hearing, touch, taste, smell, and balance.

-Senses are transducers from the physical world to the realm of the mind where we interpret the information, creating our perception of the world around us.
