They carry a combination of their genetic traits.
Answer:
DNA replication is described as semi-conservative.
Explanation:
DNA replication is described as semi-conservative because each double helix formed comprises one strand from the helix from which it was copied and a new strand. That is, the replication of one helix results into two new copies of which each contains one of the original double stranded helix from which it was synthesized.
The answer is upside-down. Mud cracks spread downward keen on soft sediment. When more sediment is eroded in, this second layer will seal the cracks underneath. Later, after the layers have toughened, the rock may be rotated upside-down and then the layers cracked. If you see edges in a mud-crack pattern, you are seeing at the side of the second layer that initially was down. You can tell that this shows edges, and not holes, through the shadow, the edges have a well-lit on one side and a shadow on the other, while holes have light and shadow on the similar side.
