(30%) gorilla babies die within the first few months of their lives because of inherent weakness of the infant or disease.

What is inherited disease?

Genetic factors play a role in almost all health conditions and traits, but there are some conditions in which genetic alterations play a role in almost all of the causes that cause the condition.

Genes are passed from parent to child, so are DNA changes within the gene. DNA changes can also occur spontaneously, first appearing in children of unaffected parents. This is called a new mutation, and the word mutation means change.

Therefore, (30%) gorilla babies die within the first few months of their lives because of inherent weakness of the infant or disease.

A circular molecule of DNA contains 1 million base pairs. If the DNA synthesis at a replication fork occurs at a rate of 100,000
lakkis [162]

Answer:

<h2>5 minutes </h2>

Explanation:

1. In bidirectional replication;  there are two replication forks, and each proceeding at a rate of 100,000 (as given in the question) nucleotides per minute.  

2. So, by  the given rate of replication, we can calculate that, it would require 5 minutes for the circular DNA molecule to be replicated by bidirectional replication because each fork synthesize  500,000 nucleotides in 5 minutes ( 100,000 per minute) ( as given, in 5 minutes × 100,000 nucleotides per minute= 500,000 and by 2 forks= 1,000,000) within the time period.
