Document Summary
Complications occur on the lagging strand: they are the result of the helicase and polymerase moving in opposite directions, dna polymerase 5-3, leading strand no complications, lagging strand is opposite. Following dna replication = 2 strands of dna: each strand has an old strand and new strand, semi-conservative. Transcription: initiation: rna polymerase finding promoter, elongation: adding complementary nucleodtides, termination: encounters stop. Catalytic site: links one amino acid to the next. Watson and crick: double helix, must be double strand. Codone: codes for an amino acid: mrna, 64 different codones, only 20 amino acids, most amino acids have more than one codon that code for them. Artificial selection is evident of natural selection: dogs: took us 200 years, earth is 4. 5 billion years, if we could intentional do it within 200 years then it stands it could have happened on its on. Insulin: diabetic usually have high blood sugar: lowers blood sugar.
