Compare and contrast the cutandpaste mechanism of transposit

Compare and contrast the cut-and-paste mechanism of transposition with the replicative mechanism of transposition. Drag the phrases on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences. In the the transpososome excises from its original genomic location. The transposon DNA attacks and inserts through a into another location in the DNA. In the the transpososome breaks one strand on each side of the transposon.

Solution

Answer:

In the DNA strand transfer mechanism, the transpososomes excise to form its original genomic location. The transposon DNA attacks and inserts through a cut and paste mechanism into another location in the DNA. In the replicative mechanism, the transpososomes breaks one strand on each side of the transposon. The broken strands attack and become jointd to the targed DNA site elsewhere in the genome forming a doubly branched structure. After replication, the result of processing of this branched intermediate is a circular co-integrate that includes two transpososons.
