Answer: The correct answer is-

Adenine (A) pairs with Thymine (T) and Guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C).

Explanation:

DNA replication is a process of formation of two molecules of DNA from a single DNA molecule, which is double stranded.

During this process, the two strands of original DNA molecule are initially separated (unzipped) and act like template strand.

Using the template strand, enzyme DNA polymerase adds dNTP (deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate, which is monomer of DNA) in the direction 5' to 3' (which is antiparallel to the direction of template strands).

The dNTPs are added according to Watson and Crick base pairing, which is-

Nitrogenous base A pairs with T through two bonds of hydrogen, G pairs with C through three bonds of hydrogen.

Nutrients deposited on leaves as dust and materials leached from leaves through insect action are most often transported to the
postnew [5]
The appropriate answer is B. Throughfall. These nutrients are transported via the process of throughfall where rain flows from leaves to the ground. Rainforests receive high annual rainfall. The leaves are also designed to funnel water to the ground soon after a shower. Leaves are equipped with drip tips to allow water to roll of leaves easily. Any particles deposited on leaves are going to be washed to the forest floor by frequent rainfall that occurs here.
