Q. 9.  In a nucleus, the number of ribonucleoside triphosphates is 10 ties the number of deoxy x 10 ribonucleoside triphosphates, but only deoxyribonucleotides are added during the DNA replication. Suggest a mechanism.

DNA polymerase enzyme is highly specific to recognize only deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates. Therefore, it cannot hold RNA β-nucleotides.
