Calculate the average of these numbers. Raw data. Data Values 24.4 5.9 5.3 17 28.2 29.5 25.9 18 15

Find the five-number summary of this data. Use the locator/percentile method described in the textbook. Do not use any other method. Data in ascending order. Data Values 3 3.6 4.3 8.4 9.5 14.5 21 24 25.1 Minimum: [min]. First quartile: [q1]. Median: [q2]. Third quartile: [q3]. Maximum: [max].

Shown below is an alignment of the first half of the γ-globin gene and mature mRNA sequences. The mRNA and aligned protein sequences are interrupted in the gene by a 130-nucleotide intervening sequence (intron). Locate the 5′ splice junction (invariant bases) and click on it.

Click on the DNA end where you would expect to find the most recently synthesized RNA primer in this replication fork.

Choose the description that is most consistent with the definition of semiconservative DNA replication.
