Summary Introduction

To determine: The compartments that constitute the entire intracellular fluid.

Introduction: A cell is the basic structural and functional unit of life. They are known as the “building blocks of life”. A typical cell includes cytoplasm and other essential organelles such as mitochondria, nucleus, chloroplast, vacuoles, and many more that have specific and vital roles in metabolic processes. The study of cells and their organelles is known as “cell biology”.

Explanation of Solution

The intracellular fluid compartment includes the overall water molecule that is present in both cytoplasm and water that is present in all the cell organelles, including the nucleus. The largest amount of intracellular fluid is however present in the cytosol. The chemical composition of water or fluids present in the organelles and nucleus varies greatly.

There are many differences between DNA replication happening during mitosis in a Douglas fir tree growing in the Oregon Cascade Mountains and DNA replication happening during a PCR reaction in a forestry research lab at Oregon State University where the laboratory is amplifying a Simple Sequence Repeat. Complete the following table that compares the two DNA replication events in terms of the primers, the nucleotides, the polymerase, and the target sequence. Additionally, give a general value for the number of copies of the template DNA after one S phase in one cell and after the lab has completed the PCR reaction.
