quzilet Which of the following occurs when DNA is replicated? Group of answer choices One strand of the parent DNA is preserved;
Bad White [126]

Answer:

The two strands of the parent DNA are separated, and two daughter DNA strands are formed.

Explanation:

DNA replication is a complex process which replicates or produces new DNA molecule from the parent DNA molecule mediated by enzymes and ATP.

The mechanism of DNA replication is known as the semi-conservative mode in which one new strand of DNA is synthesized complementary to the one strand of DNA. To form a new DNA molecule both the strand of the DNA gets separated and then a new daughter strand is formed complementary to each parent strand.

Thus, the selected option is correct.

what role does fact finding play in the arbitration and mediation process between labor and management
maks197457 [2]

Mediation is the process of two conflicting groups coming together to find a middle term. It is at times the negotiation with the difference and it is normally supervised by a person in authority who oversees and leads the processes.  If the mediation fails them the conflict is placed under arbitration.  The process of arbitration is fully directed by an arbitrator who has same powers as the judge but is limited to the conflict that is being solved. The arbitrator is there to impose a final decision or come up with the resolution to the conflict in the fairest way. He should follow justice after listening to both conflicting side. The arbitrator is not there to find the middle term to be agreed by the two sides.
