Answer:

A. It would block DNA replication

Explanation:

The first step in DNA replication is the break of the DNA double helix. The break allows the DNA polymerase to bind to the single DNA strand  and perform the synthesis of the complementary strand. Errors may occur in the process of DNA replication that affect the organism.

B) it IS NOT true because the formation of the spindle is a different independent process, and occurs in the presence of chromosomes with crosslinked strands.

C) it IS NOT true because condensation of the chromosomes occurs when teir DNA strands are crosslinked.

mestny [16]
Synthetic fabrics<span> are </span>textiles made<span> from man-</span>made fibers<span> rather than natural </span>fibers. Chemically produced fabrics<span> are </span>made<span> by joining monomers into polymers, through a process called polymerization. A </span>synthetic fabric<span>, when magnified, looks like plastic spun together.</span><span>

Natural fabrics, such as cotton, silk, and wool, are made from animals or plant based fibers. While synthetic are man made and produced entirely from chemicals to create fabrics. such as polyester, rayon, acrylic, and more. The benefits of using textiles made from synthetic fibers is that it saves the animals and plants that the fibers are based off of.
