Answer: The periodic table
Explanation: There are 118 elements in the periodic table
Since the question seemed to be incomplete, here's a brief apprehension about phases of the moon which might be of help.
There are several lunar phases namely: <span>New Moon, Full Moon, Waning and Waxing Crescent, Waning and waxing Gibbous, First Quarter, and the Last Quarter.
> Waning--means getting less illuminated each night; waxing means becoming more illuminated each night.
> Waning Gibbous-- less than fully illuminated
> Waxing Gibbous --more illuminated than half</span>
I think it's axial precession \
Hope it helps!
Answer:
Because DNA polymerase can synthesize DNA strands in 5' to 3' direction only.
Explanation:
The 5' end of one DNA strand is present opposite to the 3' end of the other strand. But DNA polymerase enzyme can elongate the primers in 5' to 3' direction only. Formation of a phosphodiester bond between the existing nucleotide and the incoming nucleotide requires the free 3'OH. This 3' OH serves in the nucleophilic attack during the formation of the bond.
Therefore, the lagging strand is synthesized discontinuously in the form of short DNA fragments. These are called Okazaki fragments. Primers are formed for short distances which in turn are elongated by DNA polymerase to form the Okazaki fragments. On the other hand, the synthesis of the leading strand occurs continuously in the same direction in which the replication fork moves.
