Answer:

It transmits genetic information to the next generation

Explanation:

DNA does not speed up chemical reactions inside the cells. That's the enzyme's job.

DNA does not directly form proteins. Amino acids form proteins

It does not provide a form of energy to the cells. Energy is produced in the cell when a phosphate from ATP is broken to from ADP.

Hence, we have only one option left. It transmits genetic information to the next generation. This is true as DNA contains genetic information and plays a major role in the characteristics of an organism.

Hope this helped!!!

Answer:

It transmits genetic information to the next generation

Explanation:

DNA stores information on how the cell should be made and ‘run’. This is why it is critical that its integrity is well preserved. Otherwise, mutations on DNA can be lethal to the cell. In higher cells, DNA is protected in the nucleolus. To pass down the genetic information, DNA is replicated by DNA polymerases and then during cell division, either copy of the pair goes to each of the two daughter cells.

The ___ biome is characterized by moderate temperatures and high quantities of precipitation.
diamong [38]

Answer:

The temperate rain forest.

Explanation:

Temperate rain forests are similar in structure and precipitation amounts to a tropical rain forest. The difference is in the location and temperature of each. Tropical rain forests are located on and near the equator, and are incredibly warm and humid, with large amounts of precipitation. Temperate rain forests are found north of the Tropic of Cancer and have moderate temperature and humidity levels. The way to remember the difference is to notice that Temperate is a combination of 'moderate' and 'temperature' and can be said to mean "moderate temperature". I hope this is the answer you were looking for!
