Answer:

If the parent strand of DNA is 5' atggcttac 3', then the daughter strand will be 3' taccgaatg 5' .

Explanation:

The DNA (deoxyribo nucleic acid) has a double helix structure with the two strands running in antiparallel directions to each other, and the nitrogenous bases in them are adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C) and guanine (G). In DNA, the complementary base pairs are adenine (A) with thymine (T) and cytosine (C) with guanine (G).

DNA replication is the process in which DNA is copied during the cell division cycle. During replication, the complementary strands of the original double helix DNA are separated and one of the two strands in the original molecule is saved in the new DNA molecule. The process where part of the DNA is saved during replication is known as semi conservative replication. Thus the new DNA molecule is made of an original strand and a newly synthesized strand.  During DNA  replication, an enzyme known as DNA helicase breaks the hydrogen bonding between the base pairs, adenine with thymine and cytosine with guanine. This unwinds the parental DNA double helix into two separate strands and thus creates a Y shaped replication fork, where the template for replication begins.

An increase in the greenhouse effect causes an increase in___
andriy [413]

The answer is option B "temperature." Greenhouse effect is the process of trapping the suns heat in the lower atmosphere. A increase of greenhouse effect would cause surface temperatures to rise.  Which then contributes to global warming because of melting the ice bergs in cooler areas on Earth and causing waters to rise and creating storms. It's not option A because the sun gives off heat or harmful radiant waves which doesn't increase carbon dioxide levels. Wouldn't be option D because it would contribute but it wouldn't happen without a increase of temperature. It also wouldn't be option C because oxygen isn't relevant in this case.

Hope this helps.
