Answer: After 3 rounds, 8 segments having 2 original strands on different segments will be present.
Explanation:
The polymerase chain reaction selectively and repeatedly copy the double stranded DNA (dsDNA) in the PCR machine.
1st round:
Single piece of double stranded DNA (dsDNA) unwinds in two seperate strands, before complementary nucleotides are synthesized to establish double helix.
2nd round:
The two dsDNA yields 4 segments before complementary nucleotides are synthesized
3rd round:
The four dsDNA yields 8 segments before complementary nucleotides are synthesized.
Therefore, at the end of 3 rounds, the two original strands will be present on the 8 different segments of copied DNA.
Answer:
b.nuclear energy to heat energy to electrical energy
Answer:
B) Polymerases can only synthesize in the 5' to 3' direction
Explanation:
The leading strand's directionality is 3' to 5', so polymerase has no problem with replicating this one. But the lagging strand has the opposite directionality, so the polymerase must work in the opposite direction of the replication fork.In consequence, the replication process undergoes periodic breaks, and the enzymes have to stop and start again while helicase separates both strands, resulting in the polymerization of okazaki fragments.
