There are two classes of release factors for translation termination. Choose correct statements

A. Class I release factors recognize the stop codons and trigger hydrolysis of the peptide chain from the tRNA in the P-site.

B. Prokaryotes have two class I release factors called RF1 and RF2. RF1 recognizes the stop codon UGA, UAA and RF2 recognizes the stop codon UAG and UAA.

C. In eukaryotic cells, there is a single class I release factor called eRF1 that recognizes all three stop codons.

D. Class II release factors stimulate the dissociation of the ribosome after release of the polypeptide chain.

DNA replication is studied in a newly discovered bacterium. It takes 30 min for the bacterium to complete a round of replication at 37oC. A Meselson-Stahl-type experiment was performed. The bacteria were grown for several generations in 14N-medium and then switched to 15N-medium. The DNA molecules were then analyzed.

If the mechanism of DNA replication in this bacterium were semi-conservative, what results would be found when the double-stranded DNA was analyzed in a CsCl density gradient after three generations in 15N-medium?
