Question
Chapter 13, Problem 4Q
Summary Introduction
To explain:
The radioactive (labeled) and the nonradioactive (non-labeled)
Introduction:
The DNA is duplicated in the S (synthesis) phase of the cell cycle. The duplication process can be traced by detecting the incorporation of the radioactively labeled thymidine in the DNA of the S phase cells.
