Practice question
Question
DNA in a 1 cm long chromatin contains 5 × 109 base pairs. The fold compaction of this DNA within the chromatin is _______ (in integer). (NAT)
Explanation
Biologically, DNA replication fidelity operates via polymerase proofreading and origin firing ensure accurate duplication. Thus Option NAT is appropriate since it matches high-fidelity synthesis mechanisms, reinforcing core concepts taught in molecular biology.
