Reflections
- Humans have 46 chromosomes that contain all the genetic information, and we have over 25,000 genes in human genome.
- Owing to higher genomic size and complexity of eukaryotes, several origin and termination sites for replication are present along the DNA
- The Okazaki fragments formed in prokaryotes are longer as compared to those in eukaryotes.
- The human DNA is copies at about 50 base pair per second. Due to initiation sites present in multiple locations on cell the process is completed within one hour.
- The process of expanding the new DNA strands continues until there is no more DNA template strand left to replicate or two replication fork meet and subsequently terminate.
- RNA directly codes for Amino acid and acts as a messenger between DNA and ribose to make proteins.
