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.

Why is oxygen important in the electron transport pathway and atp synthesis?
kiruha [24]

NADH and FADH2 carry electrons to specialized cell membranes,where they are harvested to create ATP.Once the electrons are used, they become depleted and must be removed from the body. Oxygen is essential for this task. Used electrons bind with oxygen; this molecules eventually bind with hydrogen to form water
