Answer:

C. 25%

Explanation:

A bacterial cell gives rise to two daughter cells by one division. If a single bacterial cell enters into cell division, it will form a total of 2^3= 8 cells after three rounds of cell division. The two DNA strands of the parent DNA duplex having N15 will be present in two bacterial cells out of the total 8 cells. This would occur since the process of DNA replication forms a new DNA duplex with one parental strand and one new strand. So, after three round of cell division 25% cells will have DNA with N15 (2/8 x 100= 25%)

The best answer in this case is C, "the researchers applied creativity to solve a problem in running an experiment".

Distributing the computing load across the global community by sharing processing power is a creative response to tackle the challenge in simulating protein folding for the experiment. This does not change or reduce the scientific merits of the experiment, so we can discount the first two answers (a & b). Answer d talks about well established scientific techniques, although the question wasn't really centered around the specific techniques, so it's not as relevant an answer as C.
