Select the odd one out w.r.t the process of DNA replication

a) Explain the process of DNA replication with the help of a schematic diagram. b) In which phase of the cell cycle does replication occur in Eukaryotes? What would happen if cell-division is not followed after DNA replication?

Knowledge Check

  • The proof for semiconservative mode of DNA replication was First provided by Matthew Meselson and Franklin Stahl. Escherichia coli were the first organism to be used for this experiment and then it was done in with higher organisms such as plants and human cells. The process of DNA replication in terms of energy is a very expensive process. It involves the formation of a replication fork. Given below is a graph showing the percentage of Adenine in two different double stranded DNA. DNA replication is often termed as a semi-discontinuous process because:

    A
    Formation of a primer strand takes place during replication of DNA.
    B
    Helicase unwinds the helix in phases
    C
    Okazaki fragments are formed during DNA replication.
    D
    Information insufficient

Which among the following is the appropriate reason for Primase being the primary enzyme responsible for initiation of DNA synthesis?

    A
    DNA polymerase III can't initiate DNA synthesis.
    B
    Primase is the only true replicase in the process of DNA replication.
    C
    Primase can replicated and unwind the DNA helix easily.
    D
    Information insufficient.
