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.

A transparent specimen is viewed through a microscope using _____ light while an opaque object requires _____ illumination.
Julli [10]

Transmitted, vertical

A transparent specimen is viewed through a microscope using transmitted light while an opaque object requires vertical illumination.

Transmitted light is the light that passes through an object. Transmitted light microscopy is any kind of microscopy in which the light is transmitted from a source located directly across the specimen from the objective. The light is commonly passed through a condenser in order to focus it on the specimen to obtain very high illumination. After the light passes through the specimen, the image of the specimen moves through the objective lens and later to the oculars where the enlarged image is viewed.

Serga [27]

Answer:

a. A natural geological challenge that exists in my environment is a fault zone known as the San Andreas Fault. It's a major geological landmark where two tectonic plates meet in California. People in my area are prepared for the event of an earthquake by packing emergency clothes, food, water, shelter, etc. in the event of a major earthquake. Scientists believe that California is past due for a major earthquake in the 6.0-8.0 range that could happen any day now. Hope this helps :)
