<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

C. Earth's magnetosphere

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • The Earth belts are known as Van Allen belts as their discovery is credited to James Van Allen. These two belts are the inner an Allen belt and the outer Allen belt.
  • <em><u>Van Allen belts are caused by deflection of charged particles. they are located in the inner region of the Earth's magnetosphere. these belts trap energetic electrons and protons.</u></em>
  • The inner belt contains high concentrations of electrons and energetic protons, which have been trapped by strong magnetic fields in the region, the outer belt on the other hand contains high energy electrons trapped by the magnetosphere.

Answer:

<u><em>C. DNA from the S bacteria is necessary for bacterial transformation to occur.</em></u>

Explanation:

These series of experiments determined that DNA is the genetic material which gives rise to a particular type of cell. As we can see, the S bacteria with degraded proteins were able to grow when the proteins and RNA were degraded. But they were not able to grow when their DNA was degraded. This experiment proved that proteins or RNA are not the genetic material, rather DNA is the material related to inheritance.

Which organism in the chart below is most distantly related to the other organisms?
Mamont248 [21]
In the chart provided below, you can see that the first species belongs to the plant kingdom, and the other three belong to the animal kingdom. The kingdom is a very high level of classification, right below the level of domains. Therefore, organisms that belong to different kingdoms are very distantly related.

Which enzyme is responsible for ""unzipping"" the dna double helix?
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Helicase

Explanation:

The DNA double helix is unzipped by the enzyme *HELICASE*. The enzyme breaks the hydrogen bond between the bases thereby causing the strands of the double helicase to unzip. The action of the helicase enzyme uses energy from ATP. The unzipping of the double helix does not occur in a swift move. One end of the DNA molecule with 5'-3' is opened up showing the antiparallel single strands. The end that is opened is termed INITIATION SITE of replication. The opening look like someone standing with legs wide open. The wide opening is called REPLICATION FORK. The single strands of the fork are usually unstable but their stability is maintained by the DNA-binding-proteins. Having opened the double helix, the replication would then continue in the 5'-3' direction of one of the two antiparallel single strands.
