**Step-by-Step Text Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Components:** - In the nucleus, there are two types of nucleotides: ribonucleoside triphosphates (rNTPs) and deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (dNTPs). - The problem states that the number of rNTPs is 10 times greater than the number of dNTPs. 2. **Role of DNA Polymerase:** - DNA replication is facilitated by an enzyme called DNA polymerase. This enzyme is crucial for synthesizing new DNA strands. ...
