4.) During DNA replication, the two strands of DNA are pried apart and then serve as templates for synthesis of new strands. However, there are some big differences in how the two strands are copied. Why is this so? Please describe in 4-5 sentences of your own words how replication proceeds on the two strands.

4.) During DNA replication, the two strands of DNA are pried apart and then serve as templates for
synthesis of new strands. However, there are some big differences in how the two strands are
copied. Why is this so? Please describe in 4-5 sentences of your own words how replication
proceeds on the two strands.
5.) During meiosis, when crossing-over occurs between two homologous chromosomes, it does not
happen at a single point, but rather two points with a stretch of DNA in between.
What are the two junction points called?
b. What is the region between the two points called and what is different about this region
compared to how double-stranded DNA usually is?
c. If the region described in b.) is located within a gene and the two homologues have
different alleles of this gene, what might happen that is a direct violation of Mendel's first
law? (Describe the process with 2-3 sentences of detail.)
