Scientific knowledge is defined as the knowledge of a person based on the methods and procedures of science rather than on unsupported beliefs.

The situation in which the scientific knowledge is most likely to have a negative effect on society is if it is misrepresented in order to influence public opinion.

So, the correct answer is option D.

Why are populations, rather than individuals, the units of evolution?
dimulka [17.4K]

Explanation:

The unit of evolution is the population. A population consists of organisms of the same species that live in the same area. In terms of evolution, the population is assumed to be a relatively closed group. This means that most mating takes place within the population.

Ok, DNA Polymerase is an enzyme that joins free nucleotides to both existing strands of DNA, which means it isn't D (which is helicase, by the way). They normally work in pairs of two for this function, so it isn't C; this is because if it created a fork, there would only be one needed. Now, concerning A & B, you'll have to be careful. Depending on how A is worded contextually, it could be correct, or it could not. I'm not sure I like the wording "chunks." Which is why I think it's B. Polymerase joins one strand of the "unzipped" DNA to free nucleotides that match it, and these aren't "chunks of DNA." Now, Polymerase is VERY accurate, only making a mistake once every millionth (or billionth?) nucleotide matchup. When it does make a mistake (most of the time), it'll go back and fix it. So I believe the best answer is B, it checks for errors.
Hope this helps!

fiasKO [112]
<span>When you are on standby and it happens that a nearby infant suddenly begins to cough, you need to give your attention to the infant just to check the infants’ condition.  If you have the medical knowledge, you can assess the infant by checking if there is an obstruction to his/her mouth and if it is conscious. Then, you can give sets of 5 back slaps and 5 chest thrusts to remove the object.</span>
