<span>adding a unit to move a susceptible group enough to prevent metabolism is known as shifting.
These phenomena happen especially for liposoluble organism circulating in blood like drugs an hormones.
these molecules circulating blood can be divided into two forms :
The free-form: which is the active part, it circulates freely in the blood, but are easily metabolised.
The bound form: it can be bound to other molecules from the organisms depending on its affinity like proteins (albumin, glycoproteins). this form is not active but is prevented from metabolism.
Competition for bounding proteins can happen between two drugs for example. If they have a different degree of affinity for proteins, then the most affine will displace the less affine from the protein and bound it, and that is call shifting</span>
The first statement above is an example of incomplete dominance. If
the calf has black and white spots then that’s an example of codominance.
Incomplete dominance is a form of transitional
inheritance in which one allele for an explicit trait is not entirely expressed
over its paired allele. This effects in a third phenotype in which the
expressed physical trait is a mixture of the phenotypes of both alleles.
Codominance<span> is a form of dominance by which the alleles of a gene
pair in a heterozygote are wholly expressed. This effects in offspring with a
phenotype that is neither dominant or recessive. A usual example showing this type of dominance is
the ABO blood group system.</span>

The answer would be - It untwists the double helix and separates the two DNA strands. A helicase is an enzyme used to separate strands of a DNA double helix by breaking hydrogen bonds between annealed nucleotide bases.
