Explanation:

Watson & Crick discovered that DNA is composed of two (2) strands of DNA running antiparallel to each other. One strand is oriented in the 5’ -> 3’ direction while the other is oriented in the 3’ -> 5’ direction. The nitrogenous bases of the strands are found in between the two-strand backbones and they form hydrogen bonding with each other. Specifically, pyrimidines (Cytosine and Thymine) pair with purine (Adenine and Guanine).

The space between the strands is even throughout like a ladder with rungs of equal lengths. However during the twisting on the DNA helix, there are major grooves and minor grooves that form along the helix because of the nature of how the nitrogenous bases are attached to their respective strand. They do not project from their strands at 90 degrees.

IceJOKER [234]

The protective covering of the brain that provides passageways for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) to drain into the superior sagittal sinus is called the arachnoid mater.

 

To add, the arachnoid mater is the middle of three layers that make up the meninges, or membranes, that surround the spinal cord and brain.

jenyasd209 [6]
The use of prokayotes and other organisms to clean up pollutants from soil, air, or water is called Bioremedation. Bioremedation is the use of living organisms for the recovery or cleaning up of a contaminated medium such as soil, sediment, air and water. It is actually a waste management technique that neutralizes pollutants from contaminated site using organisms. examples of bioremedation related technologies are mycoremedation, phytoremedation among others.

Which of these statements best sums up evolution?
Ksenya-84 [330]

Evolution can be defined as the process of the change occurring in a population over a period of time through genetic variation. This genetic variation and the process of natural selection help a species to evolve by selecting the traits that helps it to better adapt to the environment. These genetic variations are inherited over time as the species continue to evolve.

Hence, the correct answer is 'change in population through genetic variation over time'.
