Trees soak up rain from the ground and store/use it. Without trees to soak up the water on the ground, it stays put > pools > floods.

Also, a little bit of rain stays on the trees' leaves. This may not seem like a lot, but there are many trees in a forest with many many leaves all holding water :)

STatiana [176]

Answer:

The correct option is b. DNA ligase

Explanation:

DNA ligase is an enzyme that joins DNA fragments. If two DNA fragments or molecules have complementary ends, the ligase can join them together to form a single and intact DNA molecule, without interruptions. This is because the ligase enzyme seals the space between the molecules to form a single DNA fragment.  

The others enzymes have different functions:

DNA helicase is characterized by separating DNA from double strands into single strands and acts in DNA replication.

ATP methylase plays an important role in DNA replication when determining the beginning of replication that has already been replicated or not.

DNA polymerase is an enzyme that is responsible for catalyzing the polymerization of the new strand of DNA during the replication of this molecule.

Relative dating concerns the dating of fossils by using stratum (layers in the rock) to find the estimated age.

Absolute dating is finding the age of a fossil by using radiometric methods, such as fluorine dating or half-life dating; which is more accurate than relative dating.
