When diamonds are cut and polished, the fragments can be called chips or dust, depending on their size.
Okazaki fragments.
The fragments making up the noncontinuous strand in DNA replication are called Okazaki fragments. These are short DNA fragments that are synthesized discontinuously on the lagging strand during DNA replication.
The movement of rock fragments is called erosion.
Platelets are fragments of bizarre multinucleate cells called megakaryocytes
Fragments
The collision and joining of crustal fragments to a continent is called continental accretion.
Small fragments of plates are called platelets. These platelets play an important role in blood clotting.
The process of adding fragments of DNA to other DNA is called DNA ligation. This involves joining together two DNA fragments using an enzyme called DNA ligase, which helps to form a covalent bond between the DNA fragments.
The small DNA fragments formed from cutting are called "restriction fragments." These fragments are generated when enzymes known as restriction endonucleases cleave DNA at specific sequences, resulting in pieces of varying lengths. These fragments can be analyzed for various applications, including cloning, sequencing, and genetic analysis.
Organisms or fragments of DNA that are genetically identical to the organism they were produced from are called clones. This means they have the same genetic information as the original organism.
They are called fragments, fragments.
The two main substances that make up a virus are nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) and protein. When these substances are broken into smaller fragments, the nucleic acid fragments are called nucleotides, and the protein fragments are called amino acids.
