Describe how DNA replication relates to transmission and conservation of genetic information.

Biology

Jet001 [13]4 years ago

DNA replication follows the base pairing rule (A with T and G with C). This ensures identical replication of the genetic information; hence it's conservation. Each daughter DNA double helix contains one old strand of DNA and one newly-synthesized strand of DNA. This is known as the semi-conservative mechanism.
DNA replication also occurs during mitosis which produces haploid gametes. Each parent contributes half of the genetic information during fertilization of two gametes, thus regenerating the diploid number. Genes from both parents are transmitted to the offspring.

Which statement explains why earthquakes tend to be deeper near subduction zones?
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Option C, At a subduction zone, oceanic crust is forced deep into the Earth.

Explanation:

At sub-duction zone, the dense oceanic plates coincides with the less dense continental plates and thus sink below the continental plates. Sometimes these oceanic plates being dense, sink to greater depth with in the earth’s mantle. The sub-duction zone causes  earth quakes of high intensity when oceanic crust penetrates to greater depths of earth crust as they tend to change the rheology of the earths’ mantle and also causes bending of plates

Hence, option C is correct
