DNA replication is semiconservative, which allows each of the 2 strands to serve as a template for the new strands true Recall that the DNA polymerase must bind a double-stranded polymer before it can start making its own DNA polymer. What helps the DNA polymerase to overcome this problem in...

Assuming 100% reaction efficiency, how many DNA copies are created after the completion of four complete PCR cycles? 16 What is the function of DNA polymerase in the process of PCR? It recognizes the primers and uses the available dNTPs to replicate the template DNA sequence. 0...

Deedra's dad has Alzheimer's Disease (AD) which is caused by a change in protein structure True Alzheimer's disease is caused by aggregation of the Amyloid beta peptide and tangle formation by the tau protein. What kinds of amino acids are likely to drive the formation of these protein ag...
