Answer:

During replication, is the original dna sequence maintained in the new strands.

Explanation:

DNA replication begins at one end of the double strand of DNA. The replication fork will open as the two old tapes (initial molecule) unfold in the front, while two new tapes will be synthesized below and in turn will wind in the old tapes; forming two new double strands of DNA, each containing a new strand and an old strand. For this reason, we can say that yes, during replication, the original DNA sequence is kept in the new strands.

Hello!

During replication, DNA sequence is maintained in the new strands

The reason for it is the action of DNA Polymerase. This is an enzyme who has the function of "proofreading" the DNA sequence to ensure that all nucleotides are in the right order. This process is so accurate that an incorrect base is introduced every 10⁹-10¹⁰ bases.

List 4 techniques, other than thorough cooking, that are important in preventing foodborne illness.

frozen [14]

Foodborne illness is caused by pathogenic microorganisms present in spoiled food. Apart from thorough cooking, cooked food needs to be always separated from the raw food. This keeps microorganisms present in the uncooked raw food away from the food that is ready to be eaten. In addition, our hands and areas coming in contact with the food need to be clean and sanitized. Also, food should be kept in the right and safe temperature. Finally, clean water and safe raw materials should be used for preparing meals.
