Answer:

b) DNA polymerase can synthesize DNA in the 5' to 3' direction

DNA polymerase is only able to synthesize a new strand of DNA and not mRNA. It is only able to do this in the 5' to 3' direction. The leading template strand runs in the 3' to 5' direction and so the new complementary strand is synthesized in a 5' to 3' direction in one continuous run, following the replication fork as it 'unzips' the DNA.

hope it helps btw i did this test and i got it correct

Answer:

The correct answer is "each of the MHC genes has a large number of alleles, but each individual only inherits two for each gene".

Explanation:

In normal conditions, an individual has only two different alleles for a given gene: one inherited from his mother and the other from his father. However, this does not mean that among humans, there are only two different alleles for each gene. The major histocompatibility (MHC) genes are a clear example of this, since there are multiple combinations for each MHC class. For instance, there are 40 very similar alleles only for the HLA-B27 subtype.
