This question had choices. These are the missing choices.
A) Scientists made careful observations of behavioral patterns.
B) The DNA mutation rates for both species was calculated and compared.
C) Scientists made a detailed analysis of the fossilized bones of each species.
D) The enzyme activity of each species was studied to determine similarities in metabolism.
My answer:
C) Scientists made a detailed analysis of the fossilized bones of each species.
This determination is the only feasible thing to do since dinosaurs are long dead and choices A, B, and D requires the subjects to be alive.
Answer:
each of the two daughter DNA molecules contains one strand from the original DNA molecule and one newly synthesized strand.
Explanation:
DNA replication is a semi-conservative process. The two parental DNA strands are separated from each other by the action of helicases. The separated DNA strands serve as the template. Primase enzyme forms primers which are elongated by DNA polymerase enzymes. These enzymes elongate the primer by the addition of deoxynucleotides complementary to the sequence of the template DNA strand.
Therefore, DNA replication forms two DNA double helices from one parental DNA molecule. Each of the daughter DNA molecules contains one parental DNA strand and one newly formed DNA strand making the process semi-conservative.
