Question

Question 1 

 

DNA replication is said to be semi-conservative because

 
Question 1 options:
 

each daughter duplex contains one strand from the original DNA duplex and one newly synthesized DNA strand

 

each of the original DNA strands is used as a template by a DNA polymerase to make a complementary DNA strand

 

Replication is not conserved between daughter cells

 

DNA polymerase adds dNMP residues to the free 3′ hydroxyl group of the growing DNA strand

Question 3

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

DNA synthesis is said to be semi-discontinuous because:

 
Question 3 options:
 

Only the Lagging strand is synthesized continuously

 

Only the Leading strand is synthesized continuously

 

Both leading and lagging strands are synthesized discontinuously

 

Replication starts ar replication fork

Question 4

Unlike RNA polymerases, DNA polymerases cannot initiate synthesis unless provided with a short oligonucleotide primer with a free 3′ hydroxyl end (from which it can extend chain synthesis).
