Chapter 10, Problem 9TYK

A cell containing a single chromosome is placed in a medium containing radioactive phosphate so that any new DNA strands formed by DNA replication will be radioactive. The cell replicates its DNA and divides. Then the daughter cells (still in the radioactive medium) replicate their DNA and divide, and a total of four cells are present. Sketch the DNA molecules in all four cells, showing a normal (nonradioactive) DNA strand as a solid line and a radioactive DNA strand as a dashed line.

Shown below is a double stranded DNA molecule.Replicate this DNA and show the products formed from this replication. In your answer, indicate which strands are the new daughter strands (mark with D and in a different color) and which strands are the already existing parent strands (mark with P as shown below).  Label the 5’ and 3’ ends of all DNA. HINT: You should have 2 double-stranded DNA molecules after replication.   P: 5’  CATAGGATTCCTACG 3’ P: 3’  GTATCCTAAGGATGC 5’
One strand of a single DNA helix is labeled red while the other strand of the same DNA helix is labeled blue. This double helix DNA is replicated through the process of semi-conservative replication. Note that a completely newly synthesized strand of DNA will be white. After three rounds of DNA replication, how many all-white DNA (both strands are white) will there be? Explain your reasoning.
What proteins are crucial for creating and maintaining DNA replication forks? Choose the best explanation.   Question 2 options:   Helicase creates the replication fork; primase keeps the single strands from closing shut.   Helicase creates the replication fork; single-strand binding proteins keep the single strands from reuniting.   Ligase creates the replication fork; DNA polymerase II keeps the single strands from reuniting.   Helicase creates the replication fork; ligase keeps the single strands from closing shut.
