1. The enzyme that can replicate DNA is called . 2. After replication is complete, the new DNAs, called , are identical to each other. 3. The new DNA strand that grows continuously in the 5' to 3' direction is called the . 4. During DNA replication, an open section of DNA, in which a DNA polymerase can replicate DNA, is called a . 5. are the short sections of DNA that are synthesized on the lagging strand of the replicating DNA.

Transposon can cause mutations in genes at or near the site of transposon insertion. it is possible for these elements to transpose away from their original site, causing a reversion of the mutant phenotype. in some cases, however, even more severe phenotypes appear when these elements excise from this site, due to events at or near the mutant allele. what might be happening to the transposon or the nearby gene to create more severe mutations?

Which of the following initial observations would more directly lead to this research study? a) ginko biloba is cost effective and also possesses heart-protective, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory properties. b) metformin is an effective treatment of patients with t2d, but shows side effects that complicate the disease state. c) over the past several years, the cost of treating t2d within the united states has increased dramatically. d) many plants contain molecules that improve the health and quality of life of patients with a variety of diseases like t2d. e) t2d affects millions of individuals in the usa and worldwide many of who could benefit from improved therapies.
