4 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What method did Meselson and Stahl use to prove semiconservative replication?
Think about how scientists separate components by density.
What is the role of DNA polymerase?
Consider the action it performs during replication.
What does semiconservative replication mean?
Think about how replicated DNA is formed!
True or False: Meselson and Stahl used radioactive isotopes in their experiments.
Recall the specific isotopes used in the experiment.
Given a scenario where DNA replication is disrupted and polymerase adds incorrect bases during replication, describe how this could affect genetic information and evolution.
Consider the role of mutations in populations and natural selection.
Design an experiment to test if a new enzyme discovered in E. coli can also serve as a DNA polymerase and compare it to the existing enzyme.
Think about how to set up controls for comparison.
