Answer:

each new DNA double helix consists of one old strand and one new strand

Explanation:

<em>Replication </em><em>is a process during which the DNA produces a copy of itself. It is one of the steps involved in gene expression.</em>

During replication, the double helix strands of DNA are separated into individual strands by DNA helicase. Each strand then serve as a template for the synthesis of new complementary copies.

<em>After the synthesis of the complementary copies, the old strands do not wind back together. Instead, they wind with their newly synthesized complementary copies. This results in two DNA double helix with each consisting of one old strand and one new strand.</em>

This is why the replication of DNA is said to be semi-conservative.

Why are there no carriers with dominant pedigrees?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
You can't have a carrier with a dominant pedigree because other wise than individual or organism would be afflicted by the gene and render them incapable of being a carrier. A carrier is an individual/organism that has a normal phenotype (meaning it is not afflicted by said gene) but is carrying the gene that could cause disease or whatever the affect may be. In this case the gene would have to be homozygous recessive to be expressed. Hopefully this helps!

HELP PLEASE<br> Why do you think genetic diversity is an advantage of sexually reproduction?
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Genetic diversity is an advantage of sexual reproduction because it reduces the occurrence of unfavorable genetic traits and a variety of genes would lessen the chance of the extinction of a population due to environmental changes. The variation between a genetically diverse species will guarantee at least some of it survive when presented with different climates or challenges.
