Imagine you work for the X-files division of the FBI. You have been assigned to determine how alien cells replicate their DNA. In your favorite course, BCH 4024, you learned that Meselson and Stahl used 15N and 14N to determine DNA replication in organisms on Earth is semiconservative. Following their procedure, you culture your alien cells in the heavy nitrogen isotope; then you move the cells to media with the light nitrogen isotope for one generation. After one generation, you prepare the alien DNA and perform density gradient centrifugation in CsCl. You observe one band at the 14N mark and one band at the 15N mark. What type of DNA replication mechanism do your alien cells use to replicate their DNA?
