binds to lagging-strand template and breaks H-bonds between bases of DNA strands, unwinding DNA 

DNA helicase
100

Which type of replication requires a break in the nucleotide strand to get started?

a. Theta replication

b. Rolling-circle replication

c. Linear eukaryotic replication

d. All of the above

B. Rolling-circle replication
200

Replication in which the two nucleotide strands of DNA separate, each serving as a template for the synthesis of a new strand

Semiconservative replication
200

reduces the torsional strain (torque) that builds ahead of replication fork as a result of the unwinding

C. Enzymes and other proteins

D. Both A and B

E. Both B and C

E. Both B and C
