D. An encyclopedia. Encyclopedias are trusted and have reliable information. I feel like this shouldn't be posted in biology though
The denaturation step in the polymerase chain reaction will be affected. As a result the DNA strands will not unwind and the DNA will not become single stranded.
<u>Explanation:</u><u>
</u>
Polymerase chain reaction is used to synthesize multiple copies of DNA. The technique in molecular biology uses thermal cycling which involves steps of heating and cooling. There are three important steps in PCR.
Nucleic acid denaturation is the first step. In this step the DNA is heated to about 90°c and this causes the denaturation of the DNA. Two strands of DNA get separated. The second step is annealing in which the strands are cooled to 55°c.
During annealing the primers stick to the complementary sites on the DNA to facilitate its replication. The third step is extension in which the temperature of the mixture is raised to 72°c. The tag polymerase will start working on the DNA strands and replicate them.
If the denaturation step is not performed the speration of double stranded DNA into single strands won’t take place.
Fossils best demonstrate what ancient organisms may have looked like when they lived long ago. Without fossils, knowing such things would be nearly impossible.

Explanation:
Answer: All of the statements are true.
Explanation:
Purines are biologically synthesized as nucleotides and in particular as ribotides, that is, bases attached to ribose 5-phosphate. Adenine and guanine are both derived from the nucleotide inosine monophosphate (IMP), which is the first compound in the pathway to have a completely formed purine ring system.
Purine nucleotides can be synthesized in two distinct pathways. First, purines are synthesized de novo, starting with simple starting materials such as amino acids and bicarbonate. the purine bases are assembled already attached to the ribose ring. Alternatively, purine bases, released by the hydrolytic degradation of nucleic acids and nucleotides, can be salvaged and recycled. Purine salvage pathways are mostly noted for the energy that they save and the remarkable effects of their absence.
All statements are correct because the organization of purine synthetic enzymes involves multifunctional enzymes, reversible enzyme formations, through out the sequence there is maintenance of high local concentration and the ten steps requires only six enzymes.
