A DNA strand is lengthened in the 5'-3' direction by DNA polymerase. And this process is known as the elongation.

What are the properties of DNA Polymerase?

  • Using the DNA template strand and a starting primer, an enzyme known as (DNA-dependent) DNA polymerase creates a new DNA strand in the 5' to 3' direction.
  • The growing synthesized DNA strand is supplemented by the DNA polymerase with complementary nucleotides one at a time. Base-pairing is the process by which the complementary sets of nucleotides are joined to the bases of the template DNA strand.
  • Some DNA polymerases also possess 3'-5' exonuclease activity, which checks DNA strands for replication mistakes.

uysha [10]

Answer:

C. An approximately three-to-one ratio of black to brown coated mice in F2 is accounted for by the black allele being dominant over the brown allele

Explanation:

Assuming the black genotype is BB and the brown genotype is bb.

At F1:

                 BB   x   bb = All Bb (black)

At F2:

                  Bb   x   Bb = BB (black), 2Bb (Black), bb (brown)

Th ratio of black to brown is 3:1

961 black : 317 brown is approximately 3:1.

Hence, the correct option is C.

<em>An approximately three-to-one ratio of black to brown coated mice in F2 is accounted for by the black allele being dominant over the brown allele</em>
