Answer: The correct answer is-

C.They replaced carbon dioxide with oxygen in the atmosphere.

Cyanobacteria ( also known as blue green algae) is a large phylum of bacteria that is capable of synthesizing its own food using carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight ( photosynthesis).

They contain a green pigment called chlorophyll that absorbs energy from sunlight and helps in the formation of food ( glucose). They release oxygen as a byproduct in the atmosphere.

As these organisms utilize carbon dioxide ( that is present in the atmosphere) to give oxygen in return, therefore, they affected early atmosphere of Earth by replacing carbon dioxide with oxygen.

Thus, option C) is the right answer.

The correct answer is option C, They replaced carbon dioxide with oxygen in the atmosphere.

Reason -

Cyanobacteria are aquatic organisms that are capable to phosynthesise and produce their own food.  They are unicellular bacteria found , some 3.5 billion years ago. They produced the oxygen during the Archaean and Proterozoic Eras however before that the atmosphere has an unstable chemical composition which do not support life. They also led to the origin of plants which further added to the production of oxygen in the atmosphere.

What’s needed for dna to be copied

Answer:

The need for DNA replication

DNA replication is the process by which a cell makes an identical copy of its DNA. This process is performed at the beginning of every cell division so that when the cell divides, each daughter cell will inherit an identical copy of the DNA.

Requirements for DNA replication

Original DNA template - DNA is a double helix made of two complementary strands. Each strand can be used as a template to create a new DNA molecule.

Free DNA nucleotides – needed to form the new strands.

DNA polymerase – an enzyme that adds new nucleotides to a growing strand of DNA.

Primers – A primer is a short strand of nucleotides that will bind to the 3’ end of the template DNA strand allowing DNA polymerase to add free DNA nucleotides.
