The initiation of transcription requires melting of the DNA double helix, i.e. separating hydrogen-bonded base pairs, immediatel

y upstream of the +1 site. How is this melting accomplished in E. coli?
a. Bases at the promoter region flip outward from the double helix into pockets on the polymerase.
b. DNA helicase first unwinds the double helix around the +1 site.
c. RNA polymerase gets the energy to cause separation of strands from ATP hydrolysis.
d. Topoisomerase first returns the linking number to Lk0. DnaA:ATP complexes bind to and twist the double helix at the +1 site.

Answer:

The correct answer is B. DNA helicase first unwinds the double helix around the +1 site.

Explanation:

The helicase is an enzyme that specifically breaks the hydrogen bonds of the bases in the transcription process. As E. Coli is a prokaryote, then, the transcription only occurs in one point of the circular DNA. The promoter region indicates where the DNA polymerase has to start replicating and the Topoisomerase unwinds the parts of the DNA that are being excessively twisted because of the separation of the two strands.

jeyben [28]

Answer:

Wind

Explanation:

Gymnosperms can be described as plants which lack flowers and fruits.

As they do not have flowers to attract insects like the angiosperms, they can, however, transfer their pollen through the wind. As pollen is very light in weight hence, it can be transported by the wind. The pollen transported by the wind usually results in self-pollination as the wind is not able to take the pollen to long distances.

ehidna [41]

Answer: Option B.

Precise but inaccurate.

Explanation:

It is precise because the measurement taken with well incremated tool reflect how close it is to the actual value i.e it has the quality of been exact but diet to the missing of 4.0 centimeter because a hungry beaver made a snack of it earlier that day the measurements will be INACCURATE because it does not conform with the result of the standard or correct value to be gotten.
