Which statement about DNA replication is FALSE?

Biology
1 answer:
Alexandra [31]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

C. DNA ligase adds nucleotides to the lagging strand

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process during cell division in which DNA copies itself. DNA strands unwind with the help of helicase to initiate the process. DNA Polymerase III is responsible for prokaryotic replication and adds nucleotides in 5' to 3' direction. Since both the strands of DNA run in opposite direction their replication is slightly different. The lagging strand is also formed by DNA Polymerase III in discontinuous manner leading to formation of Okazaki fragments. DNA ligase joins these fragments once the replication process is completed.

20. Explain how health care professionals treat unregulated (or abnormal) cellular growth in the body
goldenfox [79]

Unregulated and uncontrolled cell growth is the most common simple definition of cancer. Because of the many types of cancers and a huge range of possible symptoms, treatments are also very diverse. Type of treatment also depends on cancer stage at diagnosis, and the patient's overall health. Some forms of treatment:

• Chemotherapy-usage of chemicals (medications) that target rapidly uncontrolled dividing cells,

• Hormone therapy

• Immunotherapy-usage of the medications that boost the immune system

• Radiation therapy-usage of radiation to kill the cancer cells

• Surgery

• New approaches such as stem cell therapy or personalized therapy.

According to catastrophists what was the rate of geological change?
givi [52]
Catastrophism is the theory that the Earth has largely been shaped by sudden, short-lived, violent events, possibly worldwide in scope.[1] This is in contrast to uniformitarianism (sometimes described as gradualism), in which slow incremental changes, such as erosion, created all the Earth's geological features. The proponents of uniformitarianism held that the present was the key to the past, and that all geological processes (such as erosion) throughout the past were like those that can be observed now. Since the early disputes, a more inclusive and integrated view of geologic events has developed, in which the scientific consensus accepts that there were some catastrophic events in the geologic past, but these were explicable as extreme examples of natural processes which can occur.

Identify the characteristics of a cell. Check all that apply. measures 3-500 micrometers infects all forms of living cells grows
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

A cell is defined as the structural and functional unit of an organism.

The average size of the prokaryotic cell lies between 0.1 to 10 micrometers whereas the average size of the eukaryotic cell is approximately 25 micrometers.

Four things are found in all the cells: genetic material (either DNA or RNA), cell membrane, cytoplasm, and the ribosome.

All the living cells grow and reproduce (sexually or asexually) and have the ability to respond to stimuli.

Thus, characteristics of a cell may include: cell grows and reproduces, responds to stimuli, contains DNA or RNA, not both , and contains a cell membrane.
