- (b) Okazaki fragments accumulate, and DNA synthesis is never completed.
- (c) No initiation occurs.
- (d) Synthesis is very slow.
- (e) Supercoiled strands remain after replication, which is never completed.

The article could be about the pathogen itself, the disease process related to the pathogen, the immune response to the pathogen, vaccines or treatments that affect the pathogen, or other biology-related study about the pathogen. I recommend that you choose a pathogen that is currently interesting to researchers, so that you will be able to find plenty of articles about it. Avoid choosing a historical disease that no longer circulates. List 3 possible pathogens or diseases that you might want to do for your group project.arrow_forwardnot use ai pleasearrow_forward
