ddNTPs have a hydrogen at 3' position which terminates synthesis of DNA.

ddNTPs is the abbreviated form for dideoxynucleotides triphosphates. They are known as chain elongating inhibitors. The Sanger method is a sequencing technique that is used to increase the number of DNA copies. The DNA synthesis requires magnesium ions, a single-stranded DNA template, oligonucleotide primer, and nucleotide precursors like dATP, dGTP, dTTP, and dCTP. Also, DNA polymerase is required which is an essential component for DNA synthesis.

The Sanger sequencing method is a significant process evident by its use in Human Genome Project which helped scientists in sequencing the human genome. The small sequenced fragments are joined together to form large regions subsequently forming chromosomes.

What are the three major components of a cladogram?
Dimas [21]
A cladogram is a branching diagram that shows the cladistic relationship between a number species. It comes from the greek clados meaning branch and gramma meaning character. It is not to be confused with an evolutionary tree since it does not show the relationship between ancestors and descendants plus it also lacks the ability to show how they have changed over time. The major components of a cladogram are the tip (the start of the lineage), root (the end of the lineage) and node (where two or more lineages combine).
