Answer:

The correct answer is B. the two strands of DNA must separate.

Explanation:

DNA is a double-stranded structure. The two strands are joined together by the formation of hydrogen bonds between complementary nucleotides. So before the replication takes place these two strands must be separated.

The separation of DNA strand is accomplished by the action of a helicase enzyme which breaks the hydrogen bond between complementary nucleotides and separated the two DNA strands.  

After separation, the DNA polymerase binds to separated DNA and replicating the DNA. So the right answer is B.

Soil composition would be best for availability of nutrients, water, and root development higher proportion of humus; lower amounts of clay and sand

Compared to the lower soil layers, the topsoil or surface soil often includes more organic matter and air but less clay. The topsoil typically has the highest concentration of plant roots and is more fertile than the other layers.

  • Nutrient management includes managing the composition of the soil. Minerals, organic material, water, and air are the fundamental elements of soil. Typically, 45% of the soil is made up of minerals. 5% organic material 20–30% water and 20–30% air are used. At best, these percentages are merely generalizations.
  • Numerous nutrients are found in soil, which are obtained from dead plants and animals. The plants eat these nutrients as nourishment. So soil contributes to the growth of plants by giving them sustenance in the form of nutrients.
