How Can the Leading and Lagging Strands Be Synthesized in a Coordinated

question 33

Multiple Choice

How can the leading and lagging strands be synthesized in a coordinated fashion?

• A) Specific enzymes control the size of the DNA opening.
• B) Lagging-strand binding proteins inhibit leading-strand replication if the strands become disproportionate in size.
• C) Polymerase III is a dimeric holoenzyme, and the looped lagging strand allows the enzyme to proceed in the same direction with each strand.
• D) All of the above.
• E) None of the above.

Definitions:

Motor Neurons

Nerve cells forming part of the nervous system that transmit signals from the brain and spinal cord to muscles or glands, causing them to act.

Interneurons

Neurons within the brain and spinal cord; they communicate internally and process information between the sensory inputs and motor outputs.

Sensory Neurons

Neurons that transmit sensory information from the body's periphery to the central nervous system.

Sensory Neurons

These are nerve cells that are responsible for converting external stimuli from the environment into internal electrical impulses.
