Suppose DNA polymerase synthesizes DNA at a rate of 1130 bases per minute in a newly discovered bacteria and that bacteria replicates their chromosome every 40 min . Calculate the total number of nucleotides in the bacterial chromosome.

45200 nucleotide

Explanation:

Given that

Rate at which polymerase synthesizes DNA = 1130 based per minutes

Time taken for bacteria to replicate their chromosomes = 40 minutes

Therefore

Total number of nucleotide in bacterial chromosome = Time taken for bacterial to replicate their chromosomes × rate at which polymerase synthesizes DNA

= 1130 × 40

= 45200 nucleotides

answer; i do believe that the correct answer is; ///mendelian genes are at specific loci on the chromosome and, in turn, segregate during meiosis;

the statement is true
