DNA replication involves un-winding two strands of parent DNA, copying each strand to synthesize complementary strands, and releasing the parent and daughter DNA. Which of the following accurately describes this process?A. This is an anabolic process. B. This is a catabolic process. C. This is both anabolic and catabolic. D. This is a metabolic process but is neither anabolic nor catabolic.

Option A) This is an anabolic process.

Explanation:

An anabolic process is simply a constructive process in which complex molecules are synthesized from simpler ones.

Thus just as photosynthesis or glycogen synthesis that yields complex molecules, since DNA replication leads to the synthesis of long double-stranded polynucleotides wounded together from a single strand (as in semi-conservative replication); we can therefore conclude that it is a anabolic process.

measuring light intensity

light meters can be used to measure light intensity. the meter is held at the soil surface and pointed in the direction of the maximum light intensity, and then the meter is read.

errors can be made when measuring light intensity by accidentally shading the light meter. the reliability of the results can be checked by taking many samples.
