The discontinuously synthesized DNA fragments are later joined by:
(1) DNA helicase
(2) Topoisomerase
(3) DNA ligase
(4) DNA polymerase
The discontinuously synthesised fragments are joined later by
(1)DNA polymerase III
(2)DNA ligase
(3)DNA gyrase
(4)DNA polymerase I
Isotopes used in proving semiconservative replication of DNA were:
(1) 14N 14C
(2) 14N 15N
(3) 14N 31P
(4) 14C 31P
Any mistakes during DNA replication by the enzyme would result into:
(1) Cancer
(2) Apoptosis
(3) Cell fragmentation
(4) Mutation
Distribution of newly synthesized DNA in the chromosomes is by semi-conservative means is experimentally shown by Taylor et al by using

4. Radioactive cytidine
The experimental proof for semiconservative replication of DNA was first shown in a:
1. Fungus
2. Bacterium
3. Plant
4. Virus
