If you had a mixture of single-stranded DNA fragments, all 4
deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates, and DNA polymerase III.
Would the single-stranded DNA fragments be able to be
replicated?
Question options:
Yes, DNA polymerase III would be able to copy the DNA
fragments from the 3' to 5' end by attaching the complementary
deoxyribonucleosides
No, DNA polymerase I is needed
No, ribonucleoside triphosphates are needed
No, DNA polymerase III would not be able to bind to
the DNA fragment to start replication
