Homework Statement
Hi, I did a lab where benzophenone was dissolved in ethanol and reacted with sodium borohydride (NaBH4) and chromatography was done on the reaction at different points in time. There was no HCl work up of this though. When I developed the TLC (silica) plate, it looked like...
In the experiment we used 3g of PET plastic and after it had been in the reflux condenser I weighed out how much PET plastic hadn't reacted, which when subtracted from the 3g, gave me the mass (2.482g). I converted that into the amount of moles of PET that reacted with this equation : (1 mol PET...

Hi, I recently did a lab where PET plastic was depolymerized into terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol. I was wondering how to figure out the moles of terephthalic acid (in mol) that was reacted. I'm not really sure how to calculate this since terephthalic acid isn't a...
But even so wouldn't there be a little bit that couldn't be replicated? Say you have 3 bubbles, all going right. Most of the chromosome could be replicated, but wouldn't there be a tiny bit to the left of the leftmost replication bubble that couldn't be done?

It's from a textbook called "Introduction to Genetic Analysis". That's the whole of the question though, and that chapter discusses both prokaryotic and eukaryotic replication. The book is full of badly written questions in my opinion though.. so maybe this is just a factor of that.
So you...
Hi! Was hoping I could get someone to explain this question to me..having some trouble with it...
"At each origin of replication, DNA synthesis proceeds bidirectionally from two replication forks. Which of the following would happen if a mutant arose having only one functional fork per...
