A heavy DNA is made to replicate for two generations in 14N containing NH4Cl. How many dsDNA molecules shall possess 15N?

a
Two
b
Four
c
Zero
d
One

detailed solution

Correct option is A

Heavy DNA- N15N15It is grown for 2 generations in 14NH4Cl medium. After two generation the DNA formed will have N14N14, N15N14, N14N14, N14N15.Therefore two dsDNA possess N15 , one strand in each DNA molecule but not both the strands of DNA.
