Dr. Bert Vogelstein and his partners study the causes of cancer. In 2017, they published a study of 32 types of cancer. The study concluded that most cancer cases are caused by DNA replication errors. In fact, 66% of the cancer cases they studied were caused by random DNA replication errors. Environmental factors such as diet, sunburns, and smoking caused 29% of the cancers. The last 5% of cancers in the study were caused by inherited factors. Briefly describe the steps of DNA replication and point out one place in the code where an error can occur.

Modern pennies are composed of zinc coated with copper. a student determines the mass of a penny to be 2.482 g and then makes several scratches in the copper coaling (to expose the underlying zinc). the student puts the scratched penny in hydrochloric acid, where the following reaction occurs between the zinc and the hcl (the copper remains undissolved): zn(s) + 2 hcl(aq) → h2(g) + zncl(aq)the student collects the hydrogen produced over water at 25 °c. the collected gas occupies a volume of 0.899 l at a total pressure of 79 j mmhg. calculate the percent zinc (by mass) in the penny. (assume that all the zn in the penny dissolves.)
