Question

Which of the following is not correct w.r.t. DNA replication? (A) Eukaryotes have several thousand origins of replication (B) Unwinding is brought about by enzyme helicase, which is ATP dependent (C) DNA synthesis occurs in 3' → 5' direction (D) DNA polymerase-l removes RNA primer and replace it with the nucleotide of DNA and can correct the T = T dimer

Correct answer is (c) DNA synthesis occurs in 3' → 5' direction

Q. Which of the following is not correct w.r.t. DNA replication?

Eukaryotes have several thousand origins of replication

Unwinding is brought about by enzyme helicase, which is ATP dependent

DNA synthesis occurs in $3^{'} \to 5^{'}$ direction

DNA polymerase-l removes RNA primer and replace it with the nucleotide of DNA and can correct the T = T dimer

Correct answer is (c) DNA synthesis occurs in $3^{'} \to 5^{'}$ direction
