valkas [14]2 years ago

Answer:

Approximately it will consume 55% of the total time in the interphase i.e. 800 minutes.

Explanation:

The time required in different phases are as follows:

It takes 800 minutes for interphase

It takes 400 minutes for prophase

It takes 120 minutes for metaphase

It takes 80 minutes for anaphase

It takes 40 minutes for telophase

Total -- 24 hours

From this it can be concluded that around 55% of the time spent in the interphase, whereas only 28% in the prophase, 8% time for metaphase, 6% Anaphase and 3% Telophase. This is all happens in the onion cell but in case of the human cell, prophase it takes about 15 min, in prometaphase it takes 15 mins, metaphase takes in about 20 min, Anaphase takes minimum of 3 min and telophase is about and cytokineses are about less then 10 mins.

How DNA polymerase, the double helix structure of DNA, and the base-pairing rules work together to produce two identical copies
Contact [7]
DNA structure, function and replication. DNA is a long molecule that consists of two strands of nucleotides twisted together in a long spiral called a double helix, the base-pairing rules describe which bases pair together in a DNA double helix, work together to produce two identical copies of the original DNA molecule=DNA structure; DNA funcution; RNA; replication; transcription; translation; the two strands are wound round each other to form a double helix. The two strands. Are joined together by hydrogen bonds between the bases, before every cell divison, so that one identical copy can go to each daughter cell =because the two strands of a DNA molcule have complementary base pairs, the nucleotide each can be used as a pattern or template to produce a complementary strand together then form a new DNA double helix, identical to the orginal. The enzyme DNA polymerase then moves along the exposed DNA strand

Write all possible codons recognized by each of the given anticodons. An anticodon strand reads 5'–GCG–3'. Fill in the missing b
gregori [183]

Answer:

Codon: 3'-CGC-5'

Codon: 3'-UGC-5'

Explanation:

The anticodons of tRNAs bind to the complementary codons of mRNA. The mRNA codons are always read in 5' to 3' direction. The 5' base of an mRNA codon pairs with 3' base of the anticodon of tRNAs. The first base of the anticodon (the  5' base) determines the number of mRNA codons that are recognized by the tRNA. When the 5' base of the tRNA anticodon is U or G, it binding with codon is less specific. A tRNA anticodon with 5’ G base can read two different codons.  

Anticodon:  5'–GCG–3'.

Codon: 3'-CGC-5'

Codon: 3'-UGC-5'

Blank 1: <u>hawks and owls</u>

Explanation: Tertiary consumers lie on the top of the food web or pyramid. They are dependent on other organisms for their food. These are carnivores by mode of nutrition. Here, the food web sequence would be like-

small birds----->snakes----->hawks and owls.

That's why they are the tertiary consumers.

Blank 2: <u>decomposers </u>

Explanation: The organic matter of dead plants and animals is decomposed by decomposers. They breakdown the complex organic compounds into simpler substances.
