Problem:

The error rate in DNA synthesis is very low and thus we say that the process has "high fidelity".

The error rate for DNA synthesis in an organism is relatively constant and contributes to:

a. the number of Okasaki fragments that need to be joined.

b. length of time that it takes to synthesize DNA

c. the spontaneous mutation frequency

d. the fidelity of transcription

e. all of the above

Give reasoning with your answer.
