Which of the following would most likely happen if DNA polymerase were not functioning properly during DNA replication? Any of the nitrogenous bases in the DNA strands would be able to form base pairs with each other. The new strands of DNA would not be an exact copy of the original DNA. The two strands of DNA would separate from each other and be unable to reform. Hydrogen bonding between nitrogenous bases would cause the DNA to fold upon itself.
@steve816 please help me
hello?
anyone there??
considering you posted this in the math section, excuse us for not giving an instantaneous answer. Don't be rude
im not rude i asked if anyone was there because it been a few minutes of no motion -_- I'm not rude
and its also posted in bio section. But theres more people online in this section so excuse me for needing help and being desperate
DNA polymerase then adds new, free nucleotides to the 3’ end of the newly-forming strand, elongating it in a 5’ to 3’ direction. However, DNA polymerase cannot begin the formation of this new chain on its own and can only add nucleotides to a pre-existing 3'-OH group. idk if this helps you, I don't do science
so its C? i don't understand
My best guess would be C yes
@.Sam. what do you think?
hmmm
I know C could be right, but B might also be correct,
hm.. now i don't know which one xD
its deffinetly c
DNA polymerase are enzymes that assembles DNA molecules to create nucleotides You can cross out the 3rd and 4th choices are for DNA ligase
I don't think C is right
No it could be B because if it's not replicating properly, then that means that it isn't copied properly, so the DNA sequence would change.
now I'm even more unsure i don't know cuz someone said c then sam said not c .. oy. xD
and now u say b
I'm with Sam. It's more logical to say that if something isn't copied right, then it's different from the original.
ok so then i will go with B. Ill tell u if i end up getting that one right if u want lol
I think this is called a mutation right? It exists, so the new strand of DNA can still bond with each other.
can i have help on another bio question? if ur not busy
How was (B) btw, was it right'??
i don't know yet i still have to finish the quiz before handing it in and seeing if its right
i have only 3 more questions left tho
@jgskater what?
no thx
why
Mason is preparing to present the results of a study he did to track the germination rates of bean seeds treated with growth hormones. He wants to show the different rates of growth as they progressed over time. Which of the following would be best for conveying growth rates over time? Simple table Line chart Venn diagram Pie chart
another question i have only this and 2 others which i was having a real hard time with
Okay, this question is obviously a line chart since time is a continuous x-variable on a graph, which would require a line. A table would be for discrete x-variables. Venn Diagram and Pie Charts only measure qualitative variable, not quantitative, and time and rate are quantitative.
yeah. Line chart makes sense. thanks (:
Which of the following best describes how the photosynthesis in grass cells is related to the cellular respiration in a cow's cells? The carbon dioxide produced by photosynthesis in the grass cells is breathed and used to make ATP in the cow's cells during cellular respiration. The carbon dioxide produced during the cow's cellular respiration is absorbed and used in the grass cells' photosynthesis to make ATP. The energy stored in the grass cells' glucose during photosynthesis is eaten and used by the cow's cells to make ATP during cellular respiration. The ATP produced during photosynthesis in the grass cells is eaten by the cow and stored as glucose during cellular respiration.
this is the second to last one i had a hard time with
Which organism most likely has 10% of the Sun's energy available for its use? Insects Hawk Snake Shrubs ill post the pic
For the first question the answer is second choice. 'A' is wrong because complementary base pairing, not only they are able to form base pairs with each other, they must be complement to each other as well
so for the first is it B or C? cuz sam said B
I'm going with (B) as well. (C) has no logical back-up from anyone.
For the very last question, I'm going to make a guess that it's insects because it's the only one that receives energy from the tree directly, as opposed to the other types.
Hey @mhchen , plants do make ATP via light reaction ;) The ATPs are then used in Calvin cycle
Oh really? O_o....oh yeah...now I remember.
Let me revisit my answer then.
okay so the last one is insects?
ok
Actually, let Sam answer that Photosynthesis/Calvin Cycle question for you, I don't trust myself.
lol okay xD
The answer is D for the final question. Plants get around 10% on average from the sun's energy because there are a lot of factors that hinder the plants from gathering it, for example, stacked leaves, structure of chloroplasts
oh ok so shrubs. Thank you Sam
it wasn't shrubs but its okay
It wasn't? Plant's aren't 100% efficient alright I don't believe it http://utahscience.oremjr.alpine.k12.ut.us/sciber08/8th/bio_ener/images/ENERLOSS.gif
idk well it got marked wrong on the test
also the first question about photosynthesis, its a good thing i stuck with my gut and chose C instead of B because i got C right lol xD
