estion 6! The largest chromosome in Mischievous gremlinus has a length of 9 x 107 base pairs. The rate of DNA synthesis is 3,000 bp per minute at each replication fork. a. How long does it take to replicate the entire chromosome from a single origin of replication located exactly in the middle of the chromosome? Assume no pauses. I b. Experiments performed by Professor Trink reveal that it takes only 20 minutes for a growing cell to replicate this chromosome. What is the minimum number of replicons present on the chromosome?
