Without __________ regions on the DNA during recombination,gene conversion could not occur.
A) homoduplex
B) heteroduplex
C) homotriplex
D) heterotriplex
E) None of the choices are correct.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gene conversion occurs during recombination when regions of heteroduplex DNA are formed, meaning that two different DNA sequences are temporarily paired together. Without these heteroduplex regions, there would be no opportunity for gene conversion to occur. The other options listed (homoduplex, homotriplex, and heterotriplex) do not accurately describe the required regions for gene conversion during recombination.
