Answer:

The DNA is copied by B: The sense strand of DNA is used as a template to create both strands of the new double helix.

Explanation:

Ok, the DNA is "copied" in the tanscription process. The transcription is the process by which the information in a strand of DNA is copied into a new molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA). Also, the DNA safely stores genetic material.

During the process of transcription a single strand of RNA is synthesized using a double stranded DNA molecule as a template. The two strands of the DNA molecule are separated from one another, exposing the nitrogenous bases. Only one strand is actively used as a template in the transcription process, this is known as the sense strand, or template strand. The complementary DNA strand, the one that is not used, is called the nonsense or antisense strand.

Explanation:

Options

a. Jean-Baptiste Lamarck

b. Georges Cuvier

c. Thomas Malthus

d. Charles Darwin

e. Charles Lyell

Solution

The second law of Lamarck stated that all living organism eventually adapt to the environment in which they live. However, such adaptations are continuous thereby leading to evolution of species gradually over a long period of time. Lamarck published his theory of evolution in 1801, while Darwin published his book on “origin of species in 1859.

The result predicted by Lamarck regarding impact of environment on evolution was further supported by Darwin, and future scientist.

Hence, option A is correct
