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.

Fossil fuels have been used for years as a source
VMariaS [17]


The best answer is (1)

Fossil fuels are commercially available as an energy source.

They are very easy to find. More and more extractions of fossil fuels is going on everyday. With advancement in science and  technology, the refineries and extraction procedures have improved a lot. This makes their availability even better.

Fossil fuels are also easily combustible. Most combustion engines need to be powered with little amount of fuel to produce large amount of energy. Very large amounts of electricity can be  generated  from fossil fuels.

lidiya [134]

Answer:

c. DNA

Explanation:

The DNA is double stranded molecule that twist around each other to form a double helix structure. Each strand consists of nucleotide bases joined together by deoxyribose sugar-phosphate backbone.

<em>The two strands of the DNA lies anti-parallel to each other and each strand has two ends - the 5' end where the phosphate group gets attached to the 5′ carbon of a ribose sugar and the 3' end where there is a free hydroxyl group attached to the 3′ carbon of a ribose sugar.</em>

Hence, the correct option is c.

________ are extrachromosomal dna molecules that are not part of the bacterial genome.
Tems11 [23]

The plasmid is an extrachromosomal DNA molecule that is not part of the bacterial genome. Plasmids carry genes that benefit the survival of the organisms. For example, antibiotic resistance. The plasmid is transmitted from one bacterium to another through conjugation. Transfer of genetic material is the mechanism of horizontal gene transfer and plasmid are considered as part of mobilome, unlike viruses where plasmids are nacked DNA.

For plasmids to replicate independently with cell must possess stretch of DNA that acts as the origin of replication. Self-replicating of the plasmid is called replicon.
