Answer:

b. Cellular clock  is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Cellular clock theory states that cells can divide a maximum of about 75 to 80 times, and that as we age our cells become less capable of dividing.

Cellular clock theory directs on the lifespan of organisms. As the many individual cells do not remain to reproduce continually, so this theory implies that aging of the cells is a result of their reproductive limitation and because of cellular aging.

Cellular clock theory is the theory  Leonard Hayflick's that describes the cellular aging mechanism and it suggests that as the cell becomes aged it becomes less effective of dividing.

Answer: <u>Unwind </u>

Explanation: Transcription is a process where a DNA strand is used to make a copy of mRNA. A complementary mRNA strand is made from the DNA strand. This mRNA is then later used to make proteins. In this process the junk information, present in DNA in form of introns is also spliced.

DNA is a double stranded structure, which is present in helical structure and both the strands are twisted together. In order to make the mRNA copy with the help of the enzyme RNA polymerase, DNA must open up. Then only RNA polymerase will be able to access the nucleotides of DNA.

When the land gets level like often happens at the mouth of rivers where the water spreads out and slows down, silt settles to the bottom and you could get a wide, shallow delta.
