Answer: alpha particles bouncing off gold foil

Explanation:

Rutherford gave an experiment known as gold foil experiment.

In his experiment, he took a gold foil and bombarded it with alpha particles which are basically helium nuclei carrying positive charge. He thought that the particles will pass straight through the foil, but to his surprise, many of them passed through, some of them deflected their path and a few of them bounced back.

From this he concluded that in an atom, there exist a small positive charge in the center. Due to this positive charge, the alpha particles deflected their path and some of them bounced straight back their path as like repels like.

Bohr in his structure of atom explained that electrons revolve around the nucleus in fixed orbit or shell or energy levels.These energy levels are stable and have fixed energy values.  When an electron absorbs energy , it moves to a higher energy state and when gets back to its original ground state, it emits energy which gives the line spectra.

Which structure forms as DNA unwinds? A. a special marker B. a complementary base C. a replication bubble D. a double helix
kozerog [31]

A replication bubble forms as the DNA unwinds.

Option C  

<u>Explanation</u>:  

Replication bubble is the space where the strands of double helical DNA structure are separated with the help of DNA helicase. The strands of the double helical DNA are still in the helix form on the both end of the unwinded DNA stand which gives this region an appearance of a bubble.

DNA unwinding is the first step in replication or transcription of the DNA molecule. DNA helicase separates the two types of "DNA" that are connected by hydrogen bonds with the help of ATP hydrolysis.

slega [8]
The correct option is this: HAS THE CLAIM BEEN TESTED NUMEROUS TIMES BY MORE THAN ONE SCIENTISTS.
For a claim to be accepted has been valid in the science world, it must have been tested several times by many scientists who obtain the same results. Having a uniform result about a phenomenon is usually considered an important factor when examining the validity of a claim.
