What enzyme works to add DNA to ends of chromosomes in rapidly cells such as those found in an embryo to prevent genes from being lost durintg replication?
telomerase
What is the enzyme that replicates the end of chromosomes?
Telomerase
The enzyme telomerase solves the problem of replication by?
Telomerase is an enzyme that adds nucleotides to the ends of telomeres in chromosomes. They do not solve any problems in replication
What does the telomerase enzyme do?
Telomerase maintains the telomeres of chromosomes in order to prevent cell death. This enzyme added sequences onto the ends of the chromosomes, thereby preventing extreme shortening and loss of genetic material. In a way, telomerase would give cells immortal life, by continuously regenerating its ends. However, telomerase are usually inactive in the human body because normal cells do not divide frequently, and therefore, the chromosomes do not shorten.
What is the function of fertilization?
Enzyme to penetrate outer layer of egg.

What directs enzyme production?
Enzyme production is directed by Genes located on the chromosomes.

Which enzyme separate and bind the chromosomes?
separate-restriction endonucleasis bind-ligases

What happens to hydrogen peroxide in the body?
It gets rapidly broken down into oxygen and water by the enzyme peroxidase.
What is the function of fertilization?
Enzyme to penetrate outer layer of egg.
What would happen if you mixed peroxide and enzyme?
The peroxide decomposes rapidly and creates free radicals that would tear apart enzymes
What provides nourishment for the human embryo?
The mother does. The embryo attaches to the uterine lining (called implantation) then secretes an enzyme to breakdown the cells of the lining as it burrows into the uterus. Maternal uterine cells then develop and surround the entire embryo, soon maternal blood vessels unite with the embryo to nourish it and remove waste products. This occurs about one week after fertilization and will provide nourishment throughout the first trimester until the embryo reaches the fetal stage at which time the placenta takes over through the umbilical cord.
What is starch used for during germination?
In the endosperm of a seed, there is a storage of starch which provides energy, required during germination. To tap into this energy and make it available to the embryo of the seed, the starch is first hydrolysed by an enzyme (alpha amylase) and converted into maltose (a disaccharide), then in turn, maltose is hydrolysed by the enzyme maltase to form glucose (a monosaccharide). The resulting glucose can then provide energy in the form of ATP and be used for growth by the embryo of the seed. Hope this helps.
What is the theory that describes how an enzyme works or bonds?
The theory of the enzyme is really quite simple-patronisingly easy really. So firstly we start off with the Lipese enzyme which breaks down fat-quite usefull really with todays growing obeseity epidemic, then we move on to carbohydrase enzyme which breaks down carbohydrate-(people which suffer from diabetes lack in this particular enzyme). Expert scientists believe that in a few years the number of enzymes in the body will rapidly increase.
