Question

The enzyme telomerase solves the problem of replication at the ends of linear chromosomes by which method?

Answer 1

Answer

The method is by adding various small DNA chains such as TTAGGG, that develop a hairpin turn.

Explanation

The method is by adding various small DNA chains such as TTAGGG, that develop a hairpin turn. Telomerase is an RNA dependent DNA polymerase means an enzyme that can make DNA using RNA as a template. The ends of linear chromosomes called telomeres that protect genes from getting deleted as cells continue to divide. The telomerase enzyme attaches to the end of chromosome complementary bases to RNA template are added on 3 ends of the DNA strand.
