Answer:D. convergent evolution

Explanation:

Cacti or cactuses are member of the plant family and are often referred to as spiny plants that are usually found in the desserts.

Evolution - In biology, is described the ascent or descent in the characteristics of a species over a series of generations

and natural selection favors its modification.

When two species populations evolve to become more similar to each other we say say they have a convergence evolution.

Hint: Evolution of analogous structures is always an example of convergent evolution.

Which enzyme catalyzes the elongation of a DNA strand in the 5' → 3' direction by adding nucleotides to the end of a growing DNA
Ivan

Answer:

DNA polymerase

Explanation:

DNA polymerase enzyme catalyses the reaction of adding nucleotide to growing complementary daughter strand of DNA in the direction of 5' → 3' during elongation in the process of replication. This process requires energy which is taken from nucleotides with three phosphate groups in their backbone similar to ATP (adenine triphosphate)

DNA Replication is when DNA multiplies and make exact copies of itself as part of gene transfer.
