Problem 53
(a) Eukaryotic DNA replication is more complex than prokaryotic replication. Give one reason why this should be so. (b) Why might eukaryotic cells need more kinds of DNA polymerases than bacteria?
Problem 54
How do the DNA polymerases of eukaryotes differ from those of prokaryotes?
Problem 55
What is the relationship between control of DNA synthesis in eukaryotes and the stages of the cell cycle?
Problem 59
Is DNA synthesis likely to be faster in prokaryotes or in eukaryotes?
Problem 60
Outline a series of steps by which reverse transcriptase produces DNA on an RNA template.
Problem 62
Why is it reasonable that eukaryotes have a DNA polymerase (Pol \(\gamma\) ) that operates only in mitochondria?
Problem 64
Why are scientists excited to find that RNA molecules can be made that are self-replicating?
