A Levels Biology (9700)•9700/13/M/J/20

Explanation
Key idea: Incomplete question lacks statements 1-4 for analysis
Steps:
- Read question: Describes synthetic RNA-like nucleic acid with 5-carbon sugar, unreplicable by DNA polymerase.
- Identify issue: Lists choice options A-D referencing statements 1-4, but statements themselves are absent or garbled (e.g., "RNA information can be stored by RNA, naturally occurring DNA polymerase cannot replicate HNA").
- Assess solvability: Without full statements, cannot evaluate which explain why DNA polymerase fails to replicate this nucleic acid.
- Conclude: Evaluation impossible due to missing details.
Why D is correct:
- Not enough information to confirm or explain D (3 and 4 only).
Why the others are wrong:
- A, B, C: Not enough information to evaluate.
Final answer: Not enough information.
Topic: Structure of nucleic acids and replication of DNA
