The higher the GC content of a DNA, the higher the strength of the interchain interactions, and the higher the melting temperature.
DNA is Deoxyribonucleic Acid. It is the genetic material in maximum of the organisms. The DNA is a polymer made from nucleotides (sugar, nitrogenous bases and phosphate group). It is composed of two strands of phosphate and sugar backbone in an antiparallel direction. The nitrogenous bases present in DNA are Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Guanine (G) and Cytosine (C).
GC content refers to the total amount of Guanine and Cytosine present in the DNA. Since there exists a triple bond between G and C, more percentage of them provides strength to DNA. That is why high GC content denotes high melting temperature of DNA.

Hi, what are the “following” options? I’d love to help! Thanks. :)
Nucleotides lining up along the template strand according to base pairing rules process helps to preserve the genetic information stored in DNA during DNA replication
Option D
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
The DNA is a semi conservative molecule from the genetic information storing point of view. The genetic information is stored there in form of the alignment and arrangement of the nitrogen bases. These nitrogen bases are replicated just in order to conserve the genetic information.
During protein synthesis, same nitrogen bases get denoted in the RNAs and this gives the particular protein which is required in the body. No molecule present in the body can destroy the DNA and its alignment. It’s conserved as long as no external molecule or force destroys it. So it’s conserved in a very safe way.
Humans impact the physical environment in many ways: overpopulation, pollution, burning fossil fuels, and deforestation. Changes like these have triggered climate change, soil erosion, poor air quality, and undrinkable water.

Reasoning: T is hit with the most pressure then Q then R and S
