A species of tree has a very large genome consisting of 2.0×10^10 base pairs of DNA per diploid genome. Assume that each diploid cell contains 10 chromosomes of similar length. a. assume that this tree’s DNA polymerases can synthesize 2×10^4bp/minute and th origins of replication are evenly spaced on each […]
