**Diagram Explanation:**The diagram illustrates a replication fork, with an arrow indicating the direction of movement. The replication fork is the point where the DNA double helix is unwinding to allow replication to occur. - **Replication Fork:** This is the Y-shaped region where the DNA is split into two separate strands.- **Unwinding:** The DNA molecule is unzipping at the replication fork, splitting into two strands. One strand is the leading strand and the other is the lagging strand.**Questions:**(a) Which template strand (top or bottom) is the lead strand?(b) Which strand (top or bottom) would you expect to find the Okazaki fragments?**Answer Options:**- ○ Bottom; Top- ○ Bottom; Bottom- ○ Top; Top- ○ Top; Bottom

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is a nucleic acid. They are double helical structure that wind around…

In Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), the temperature is one of the most important parameters that could influence the efficiency of this technique. Each cycle of this reaction has its own specific temperature. For instance, the denaturation step possesses a temperature of 94 - 98 ℃ to ensure that the double stranded DNA is fully separated. (i) (ii) (iii) Why is the annealing temperature vital in this technique? Explain how will this temperature affects the efficiency of this reaction. Why is Hot Start PCR technique preferred by some researchers? If the primers you purchased possessed the following information. 5'-GGA AAC AGC TAT GAC CAT G-3' Calculate the melting temperature of this primer and estimate the annealing temperature of this primer.
The restriction endonuclease NciI recognizes and cuts the five-base-pair sequence 5’- CC(G/C)GG-3’ [where (G/C) means either G or C will work at that position].

You prepare a reaction mix containing (i) DNA polymerase III, (ii) DATP, DCTP, dGTP, Mg2+, and 2,3'dideoxy-TTP (called ddTTP*), (iii) a short primer with the sequence 5'-CCTG-3, and (iv) a source DNA fragment with the sequence, 5'-AATCGTTCACGTTAGCAGG-3. What is the product of this reaction? Note that in ddTTP, both the 2' and 3' positions on the ribose sugar lack hydroxyl groups.
