Lagging strand synthesis would be incomplete; leading strand synthesis would be unaffected.

What would happen if a gene is changed or mutated?
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) transcription occurs at a rate of around 1000x per second alone in a single-cell. Errors in these processes are typically checked and corrected by special enzymes. However errors in DNA transcription can result in protein synthesis with deleted amino acids which at best can be harmless. At worst, the deletion (or defective synthesis) of proteins can create fatal cancers through localized cell mutations.
Would it be easier for DNA ligase to reconnect two fragments cut by EcoR1 or one fragment cut by EcoR1 with one cut by Hind111?
Blunt or sticky ends are not a problem for the ligase, the thing is, the enzyme used should be the same to cut the insert and the vecotr(which may be a single or double enzyme but same!)
What is the purpose of the cDNA synthesis?
The purpose of cDNA synthesis is to synthesize a copy of DNA from mRNA. This means that it is involved in the duplication of DNA that occurs when a cell divides. As a result, without cDNA synthesis, life would not exist as cells would not be able to divide.
What would happen to the cell membrane if ribosomes are not working?
There would be no protein synthesis.
What would be the immediate consequence of destroying a cell's centrosomes?
The mitotic spindle would not form
Which pair of enzymes is necessary to make recombinant DNA?
Actually the answer would be Restriction enzyme and DNA ligase.
Would you say eight percent of the microchips is defective or eight percent of the microchips are defective?
You would say the latter. eigh percent of microchips ARE defective

What would be the most likely outcome if the ribosomes of a cell were damaged and stopped functioning?
The synthesis of enzymes would stop.
How does a defective gasket affects engine operation?
An engine has several different gaskets. It would depend which one is defective as to how the engine would be affected
What would make the fans not come on if all the relays and fuse were good in a 2005 Pontiac grand am?
Defective switch, defective wiring, defective fan motor.
How would you use defective in a sentence?
I was able to exchange the defective camera because it had a ninety day warranty.
If a toxic drug inhibited mRNA synthesis what would be most directly affected?
protein synthesis
Water heater thermostat defective?
Of course a water heater thermostat would be defective as water heaters / hydronic boilers would use an Aqua Stat
Why do the turn flashers on your 96 Lincoln mark 8 not work?
I would suspect the Flasher Relay is defective. Replace it with a new one.I would suspect the Flasher Relay is defective. Replace it with a new one.
Would a defective battery cause your car to not accelerate?
no
How would prevention of DNA synthesis affect mitosis?
There would not be enough DNA to put in daughter cells, since DNA synthesis is the replication of DNA.
