Answer:

This would be an example of nonpoint source pollution.

Explanation:

The source of point source pollution is typically factories and powerplants, leading to more air and water transferred pollutants and becoming easier to track. Nonpoint source pollution is the opposite of point-source pollution, with pollutants being released in a wide area. Since the rainwater would be washing the oils and particles into the water, it would be considered runoff. Runoff is one of the leading causes of point source pollution. I hope this helps. ^_^

Before replication can take place.(1) A. DNA polymerases must add complementary nucleotides to DNA. B. the two strands of DNA mu
andriy [413]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. the two strands of DNA must separate.

Explanation:

DNA is a double-stranded structure. The two strands are joined together by the formation of hydrogen bonds between complementary nucleotides. So before the replication takes place these two strands must be separated.

The separation of DNA strand is accomplished by the action of a helicase enzyme which breaks the hydrogen bond between complementary nucleotides and separated the two DNA strands.  

After separation, the DNA polymerase binds to separated DNA and replicating the DNA. So the right answer is B.
