Biology
1 answer:
Olenka [21]1 year ago

Answer: B. Water molecules slow down until they begin to bond together.

Explanation: When water is cooled, energy is removed from the system, and the molecules begin to slow down. When the  molecules have slowed suciently, their collisions are no longer energetic enough to overcome their electrostatic attraction, and  they begin to bond together. The other answer choices are inaccurate. Since ice is less dense than water, high pressure  compresses the ice and actually causes it to melt. (Compression has no effect on water volume.) Cooling has no effect on the  shape of individual water molecules.

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

C) are sequence-specific DNA endonucleases

B) degrade foreign DNA that enters a bacterium.

Explanation:

Restriction enzymes are the proteins that cut the DNA at a specific sequence.

<u>Restriction enzymes are also known as restriction endonuclease produced by bacteria that recognizes a specific sequence on DNA and split it by catalyzing the hydrolysis or addition of water molecule. </u>So, Restriction enzymes are sequence-specific DNA endonucleases.

The biological role of restriction enzymes is to restrict the entry of foreign DNA into the bacterium. <u>Restriction enzymes have the ability to restrict the number of bacteriophage strains that affect bacteria.</u>

Hence, the correct options are "C and B"
