Answer:
5556
Explanation:
If a DNA polymerase synthesizes in average 50 nucleotides/second, that means that in three hours (10800 seconds) it synthesizes about 540000 nucleotides.
However, if the human genome is composed of 3000000000 (3 billion) base pairs (nucleotids), the minimum number of DNA polymerases (working in the same number of origins of replication) to finish the duplication of all the genome in three hours is 5555,5. (3000000000/540000). As we know there is no half polymerase, so we round to 5556.
5556 molecules of DNA polymerases acting on 5556 origins of replication are needed.
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. The possible outcome on the progeny of the hamster would be that the defect is carried forward to the progeny of the hamster. Hope this answers the question. have a nice day.
I believe it’s [A]
Explanation :
As the temperature of a liquid increases, the kinetic energy of its molecules also increases. As the kinetic energy of the molecules increases, the number of molecules transitioning into a vapor also increases, thereby increasing the vapor pressure.
I hope this helped out, have a nice day! :)
