If it is smaller, then the likelihood of error is also small, making the results more credible. Smaller sample sizes from a large population generally have a larger margin of error while larger ...

Question 1

DNA replication can be defined as the process by which during cell division the DNA duplicates itself to several copies. In this process, the first step involves the unzipping of the double helix found in the DNA structure. This is done by the helicase enzyme, which breaks hydrogen bonds holding the DNA together. When separated the two DNA strands form a replication fork with a Y shape (Craig et al. 2014). This causes the strands to be oriented in different directions, forming the leading and the lagging strands. Once the two orientations are formed, a short RNA piece called ...

The polar bear is specially adapted to survive in the cold pole regions. Its body structure and genetic composition have substantially evolved to accommodate the low temperatures and harsh environmental conditions. Its behavioral attributes ...
