Before cellular division, the cell must duplicate its DNA so that the daughter cells will contain complete copies of the dna. Which characteristic of DNA makes it most suitable as a molecule for this role? A. DNA is located in the nucleus
B. DNA is a large macromolecule
C. DNA is made of repeating sugar-phosphate subunits
D. DNA is made of two strands of complementary nucleotides

D. DNA is made of two strands of complementary nucleotides

Explanation:

As rightly stated in this question, DNA replication must occur prior to cell division because each daughter cells must receive an equal and correct amount of genetic material (DNA). DNA replication is the process by which the DNA molecule duplicates to form two identical copies of itself.

This replication characteristics of DNA is achievable because "DNA is made of two strands of complementary nucleotides". The double-stranded DNA first unwinds into two single strands. After which, each single strand serves as a template for the new DNA strand. Two strands of a DNA molecule are complementary to one another.

the cladogram shown here shows similarities and differences among several classes of vertebrates. anatomically, the four have limb structure as their common ancestor. we might separate the mammals from the other three classes because they a) divergent; do not lay eggs b) identical; are warm-blooded c) varied; a four chambered heart d) homologous; have mammary glands
