DNA replication

Which enzyme has the job of unzipping the double helix?

• Helicase
• Polymerase
• Ligase
• Primerase

The picture below shows the steps of DNA replication beginning with step one and ending with step three.

​Because you are reusing the old, or parent, DNA strand DNA replication is said to be

• Semi- Conservative

• Semi-discontinuous

• Continuous

• Fully-Conserveative

The picture below shows an enzyme unwinding and unzipping DNA.

​

​What is the name of this enzyme?

• DNA Helicase

• DNA Ligase

• DNA polyermase

• RNA Polymerase

Match he nucleotide with its complementary nucleotide. (DNA to DNA).

Adenine -

• Thymine

• Guanine

• Cytosine

Match he nucleotide with its complementary nucleotide. (DNA to DNA).

Cytosine-

• Thymine

• Guanine

• Adenine

Which enzyme is responsible for adding the free nucleotides to the replicating DNA? ​

• DNA Helicase

• DNA Ligase

• DNA polyermase

• RNA Polymerase

Which is the first step?

• DNA Helicase unwinds original DNA strand

• RNA Primase lays down RNA primer for new nucleotide bases.

• DNA polymerase builds new strands by bring in new nucleotide bases.

• Ligase knits together fragments on lagging strand
