How did Meselson and Stahl support Watson and Crick’s double-helix model? a. They demonstrated that each strand serves as a template for synthesizing a new strand of DNA. b. They showed that the DNA strands break and recombine without losing genetic material. c. They proved that DNA maintains a double-helix structure while undergoing semi-conservative replication. d.

Provide a brief summary of the Sanger sequencing method.
An adult with a history of tanning has his genome sequenced. The beginning of a protein-coding region of his DNA reads ATGGGGATATGGCAT. If the protein-coding region of a healthy adult reads ATGGGGATATGAGCAT, identify the site and type of mutation.
