The function of Helicase in the process of DNA replication is to untwist the double helix and separating the two DNA strands. This action of helicase creates the replication forks and replication bubbles where the process of replication is initiated. Their main role is the separation of double-stranded DNA into single strands allowing each strand to be copied during the process of replication. It may also function in other cellular processes where the double-stranded DNA must be separated, including transcription and repair. <span />

Bess [88]

The correct option here would be A. Evolution has to do with species changing over time while natural selection is a process that leads to evolution.

<h3>Evolution and natural selection</h3>

Evolution refers to the gradual changes to the morphological and or physiological characteristics of living organisms over time as a result of constantly trying to adjust to their environments.

Natural selection, on the other hand, refers to one of the processes through which evolution takes place. It refers to forces that select for or against traits in organisms.
