Preview - Exploring Dna Replication

Challenge 5: Changing the Pace 2

DNA-strand-length:  30                                                    Speed:  see below

Enzyme labels: checked                                                  Substitutions:  unchecked

Nucleo labels: unchecked                                                Free-nucleosides:  50                    Time-limit:  No Limit

 

7.)  Now, decrease the simulation speed by moving the slider to the left, to SLOWER.

8.)  Now, replicate the bottom strand of DNA.  Press GO/STOP to end the simulation.

 

Questions

Please answer the questions below.

Question 9:  How does decreasing the simulation speed affect your DNA replication?  Is it easier or harder?  Why?
