In a PCR reaction, a few seconds at high temperature disrupts the ____ that hold the two strands of DNA together, so every molec
Andrews [41]

Answer:

Hydrogen Bonds

Explanation:

In the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) the temperature rises to 90 ° C - 95 ° C, to break the hydrogen bonds, which are the types of bonds responsible for pairing the two strands of DNA, this process is known as denaturation of DNA.

The DNA is extremely stable, due to a large number of bonds (hydrogen bonds) that form between the two strands. If the temperature decreases, these bonds will begin to recompose, until the DNA returns to its original state

How are the graphs of a body chemical controlled by negative feedback and a body chemical controlled by positive feedback simila
Anettt [7]

Answer:

brainliest plzzzzz

Explanation:

There is a proper mechanism of controlling the levels of various kinds of hormones and chemicals in our body called as positive feedback and negative feedback.

In a very simple language you can understand it as whenever there is a release of a particular hormone or chemical inside the body in very huge amount then the negative feedback of the body is activated the production of that particular hormone or chemical is stopped and vice -versa for negative feedback.

Explanation:positive feedback and negative both the feedback mechanism are achieved to maintain the proper homeostasis.

Example: release of clotting factor after blood loss is a positive feedback and a hormone is released and then suddenly there is a increase in hormone b, then the amount of hormone a will decrease this is a negative feedback.

Leeches are soft squishy animals with long tubes like bodies that are made of many repeating segments they contain a heart that
Arlecino [84]

Answer: Annelida

Leeches are soft bodied segmented parasitic worms. They belong to the phylum Annelida. They are hermaphrodites which means they exhibit sex organs of both male and female.

The characteristics which are found in leeches which group them into Annelida are:

1. The body of the leeches are bilaterally symmetrical like other Annelids. The body organs are also segmented.

2. They have a closed circulatory system in which the heart pumps the blood to all the parts of the body.

3. Leeches either exhibit a protusible pharynx or proboscis which allows them to suck the blood of the host such features are also common in other Annelids.

A single gene produces two different proteins, utilizing different exons. What is the most likely explanation?
Helen [10]

Answer:   Differences in mRNA splicing.

Explanation:

The exon is the region of a gene that is not separated during the cutting and splicing process and thus remains in the mature messenger RNA. In genes encoding a protein, it is the exons which contain the information to produce the protein encoded in the gene. In these cases, each exon encodes a specific portion of the complete protein, so that the set of exons forms the coding region of the gene. In eukaryotes, the exons of a gene are separated by long regions of DNA (called introns) which do not code.

RNA splicing is a post-transcriptional process of maturing RNA from which certain sequential fragments are removed. This process is very common in eukaryotes, and can occur in any type of RNA, although it is more common in mRNA. It consists of removing the introns from the primary transcript and then binding the exons. Particularly, <u>alternative RNA splicing takes place when one gene can produce different proteins as a result of what segments are considered as introns and exons</u>. When different segments are considered exons, the result is a great diversity of mature transcripts which produce different proteins.

<u>So, gene splicing is a post-transcriptional modification in which a gene can code for many proteins, which makes it an important source of protein diversity.</u>
