Yes!! This is a very rare trait, but it happened to Lydia Fairchild. It starts in the mother's womb when two fertilized eggs fuse, also known as chimera. Its an odd sort of twin, and you cannot visibly see the twin at all. If the fusion didn't happen the result would be fraternal twins. Basically a person who has two DNA strands is their own twin!

What does semi conservative mean regard to DNA replication?

replicated DNA is made of one old strand and one new strand.


What is a single strand of DNA used for DNA testing called?

A single strand of DNA used for DNA testing is called PCR


What is the new strand called in Dna replication?

semiconservative replication - original DNA double strand will unwind into 2 strands, so one original strand will serve as a template for synthesizing a new complementary strand , thus forming a new DNA (one with old strand and one with a new strand)


At the end of replication each new DNA molecule is composed of?

After DNA replication, each new molecule has one strand of the original DNA molecule and the other strand is composed of new nucleic acids. This is due to the semi-conservative replication of DNA.


Can DNA be described as conservation?

DNA replication is semi-conservative. This means that each new DNA molecule has one original strand of DNA and one new strand of DNA.


What happens when DNA replicates semiconservatively?

This means that the new double-strand will have one strand of the original DNA and one new strand. This is known as semi-conservative because one strand is conserved (not replaced).


DNA replication results in two DNA molecules?

True, during DNA replication, the DNA molecule unwinds and each strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new complementary strand. This results in two identical DNA molecules, each containing one original strand and one newly synthesized strand.


What does RNA polymerase use one strand of DNA as?

No. All strands can be replicated, just depends on where the enzyme decides to land and unzip it. Anyways, all DNA molecules would be adequate templates since they are all identical copies of each other.


How many strands of DNA did you start with and end with?

we started with a single strand DNA molecule.


IMPORTANT After DNA replication does half of the old strand leave with half of the new strand?

The process of DNA replication is described as being semi-conservative. The complementary DNA strands are pulled apart, new matching nucleotides are connected to each separate strand, and the result is two new strands that each contain exactly one-half of the original DNA strand.


When is one or both sides of the DNA strand copied in transcriptionI?

In transcription, only one side of the DNA strand is copied. The enzyme RNA polymerase reads the DNA template and synthesizes a complementary RNA strand based on the sequence of the DNA template.
