What is the role of dna ligase in the elongation of the lagging strand during dna replication? a) it synthesizes rna nucleotides to make a primer. b) it catalyzes the lengthening of telomeres. c) it joins okazaki fragments together. d) it unwinds the parental double helix. e) it stabilizes the unwound parental dna

C) It joins Okazaki fragments together

Explanation:

DNA ligase is an enzyme used by the cell during the DNA replication process which joins the discontinuous strands or Okazaki fragments formed during the process.

The DNA ligase enables the formation of the bond between two nucleotides by binding the 3 'C sugar of one end to 5' C phosphate of another end, a bond called phosphodiester bond.

In the given question, since the function of DNA ligase is asked which is to join the Okazaki fragments therefore is the correct option.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

increase soil erosion                                             reduce soil erosion

cattle grazing                                                         hydroseeding

deforestation                                                         contour plowing

                                                                                planting vegetation

plant roots basically hold the top soil

together and stop soil erosion because

in such situation top soil is not removed

during flood but cattle grazing causes

soil erosion because cattle consume the

grasses and herbs and top soil is exposed.

same situation occurs because of

deforestation, the trees and plants are cut

down to expose top soil which causes soil

erosion

answer; i believe the correct answer is (anemia);
