Answer: C. The new DNA molecule consists of one new strand and one old strand of DNA.

DNA replication is a biological process that makes two identical DNA molecules which are the replicas of the original DNA molecule. The double stranded DNA gets separated into two template strands. Each template strand act as a guiding strand for producing a counterpart called as complementary strand. Template and complementary strands combine to form a new double stranded DNA. Therefore, the new DNA molecule consists of one new strand (complementary strand) and one old strand (template strand) of DNA.

The outcome of DNA replication is formation of a new DNA molecule consists of one new strand and one old strand of DNA.

Further Explanation:

The genetic information is known to be packaged in 23 sets of chromosomes. In these, histones are the proteins that aid the molecule of DNA to be very tightly packed in added and also aids in maintaining the double-helical structure of the DNA.

Two identical DNA molecules are formed as a result of DNA replication. The DNA helicase breaks the bond between the base pairs to separate the two strands of DNA. The template strand is required for the initiation of polymerization by a DNA polymerase enzyme. Primers are formed and the complementary strands are produced. Thus, the resultant DNA formed by the process of replication has one strand from the parent and another one is newly synthesized.

It consists of mainly three stages:

Initiation
Elongation
Termination

DNA undergoes a replication process wherein duplication of the double-helical structure takes place. It then moves further and forms an RNA molecule through a process called transcription. RNA undergoes RNA processing followed by post-transcriptional modifications which further release out mRNA, rRNA, and tRNA molecules. All the 3 kinds of RNA enter into the last stage of central dogma called translation. During this, proteins are formed.

Which of these statements describes some aspect of facilitated diffusion?a.Facilitated diffusion is another name for osmosis.b.F

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Facilitated diffusion is a form of passive transport hence no energy is required by the cell. This means that while the molecules are moving down a concentration gradient – line normal diffusion – the movement of the molecules needs to be facilitated (in this case by a transmembrane protein) either because the molecule is polar and can't pass through the hydrophobic region of the cell membrane, or the molecule is too big to passively pass through the small natural pores of the cell membrane.

The distant ancestors of tigers may have had bodies without stripes. Use the theory of natural selection to explain how tigers m

Degger [83]

The tigers have stripes because it is advantageous for them because they are an ambush predator and need good camouflage. The stripes are excellent camouflage for places that are shady, so the tiger can easily get close to its prey and attack it.

There's a very big possibility that the distant ancestors of the tigers did not had stripes. The reasons for that are different environment, but also that the stripes are actually a very rare type of pattern among the felidae family members.

As the environment started changing, the tigers needed to adapt to it, so they also needed a different camouflage. As some tigers in the population started to develop stripes, they were better hunters, thus were stronger, and seen as suitable mates for the females, as it would provide an offspring with the advantage that the male tiger has. Through this selection in the breeding process of mates that have advantageous camouflage patterns, the stripes were becoming more and more present, to the point where they totally pushed aside and eliminated the previously dominant camouflage pattern.
