Bacterial DNA polymerase I and DNA polymerase III perform different functions during DNA replicatio

a. Identify the principal functions of each molecule.

b. If mutation inactivated DNA polymerase I in a strain of E coli, would the cell be able to replicate its DNA? If so, what kind of abnormalities would you expect to find in the cell?

c. If a strain of E. coli acquired a mutation that inactivated DNA polymerase III function, would the cell be able to replicate its DNA? Why or why not
