- Is the semiconservative replication of DNA perfect?arrow_forwardSuppose a future scientist explores a distant planet and discovers a novel form of double-stranded nucleic acid. When this nucleic acid is exposed to DNA polymerases from E. coli, replication takes place continuously on both strands. What conclusion can you draw about the structure of this novel nucleic acid?arrow_forwardHow did Griffiths and Avery discover that DNA was the molecule of heredity? Would we have been able to discover the structure of DNA without this work? Why or why not? Would we have been able to understand or actually try to understand DNA replication without his work? Why or why not?arrow_forward

And what differs about how DNA replication occurs in each direction?arrow_forwardAfter Alfred Hersey and Martha Chase definitively identified DNA as the “Transformative material”, which three scientists were responsible for characterizing the structure of DNA? How did they do it?arrow_forwardAs a result of DNA replication two DNA molecules come into existence. Why is it not correct to assert that two “new” DNA molecules are created? What is the name given to the process concerning that fact?arrow_forward
- Why is DNA replication considered semiconservative? A. Both strands of each replicating DNA molecules are conserved. B. One molecule consists of the old strands and the other DNA molecule is entirely new. C. One strand of each replicating DNA molecule is conserved and the other strand is newly synthesized. D. Both strands of each replicating DNA molecule are new.arrow_forwardwhat if a mutation resulted in the enzyme DNA polymerase III being non-functional?
