The elucidation of the structure of the double helix provided a hint as to how DNA divides and makes copies of itself. This model suggests that the two strands of the double helix separate during replication, and each strand serves as a template from which the new complementary strand is copied. What was not clear was how the replication took place. There were three models suggested (Figure): conservative, semi-conservative, and dispersive.
In conservative replication, the parental DNA remains together, and the newly formed daughter strands are together. The semi-conservative method suggests that each of the two parental DNA strands act as a template for new DNA to be synthesized; after replication, each double-stranded DNA includes one parental or “old” strand and one “new” strand. In the dispersive model, both copies of DNA have double-stranded segments of parental DNA and newly synthesized DNA interspersed.
Meselson and Stahl were interested in understanding how DNA replicates. They grew E. coli for several generations in a medium containing a “heavy” isotope of nitrogen (15N) that gets incorporated into nitrogenous bases, and eventually into the DNA (Figure).

Go through the exercise and say whether you decided that Jane was qualified or not qualified to compete in the athletic events. Give your reasoning. Also, after completing the exercise, briefly state, in your own words what you learned about CAIS.

Read the following:
Then answer the following questions:
Would you expect the 2 daughters of the mother in the article to have a chance to have sons with muscular dystrophy? Explain.
Should we as a society spend more or less on diseases like Duchenne muscular dystrophy? Note that Duchenne Muscular dystrophy is fairly common compared to most single gene diseases, but much rarer than conditions like heart disease or autism.
If a cure is found but it is very expensive, should it be available to everybody? Why or why not?
A doctor in that article made (what I believe) to be a serious ethical error. What was it? Discuss.
