Why does a single strand of DNA act as a template during transcription, why not both the strands? With reference to the structure of DNA, describe semi-conservative replication, and explain why this process is important. Explain why the two strands of DNA are said to be antiparallel. How do...
Thus, when new strands are assembled during semi-conservative DNA replication, they are anti-parallel to their template strand of the parent DNA molecule. 2) When DNA polymerase synthesizes new DNA strands, the strand growth is in the 5' to 3' direction; new nucleotides are only added to...
Explain DNA replication as semi-conservative model using evidence from Messelson-Stahl experiment. For which protein does DNA code? Explain protein synthesis. What are the functions of introns? When an RNA strand transcribes a protein, how ...
With reference to the structure of DNA, describe semi-conservative replication, and explain why this process is important. Why does a single strand of DNA act as a template during transcription, why not both the strands? Describe leading strand and lagging stran...
Does a 2n individual have homologous chromosomes or two copies of each chromosome? Explain DNA replication as semi-conservative model using evidence from Messelson-Stahl experiment. Why does a cold temperature slow down enzymatic reactions that could break down DNA? How d...
How does the distribution of histones during replication compare to the semi-conservative replication? Biological dyes are used to prepare a pap smear. How do you think these dyes work? Why are different cells, and different regions of cells, different colors? Explain ho...
DNA replication is a vital biological process wherein new DNA strands are synthesized. DNA replication is a semi-conservative process, meaning the newly synthesized DNA contains one parent strand and one parent strand. DNA replication takes place during the S phase of the...
DNA replication is a semi-discontinuous process. Why is it necessary? Why does each replication fork require both leading and lagging strand synthesis? Select two reasons below. A) Because DNA synthesis is semi-conservative. B) Because DNA polymerases must synthesize DNA...
