List the steps of DNA replication, be sure to name the enzymes involved.
1. DNA Helicase unzips the DNA helix.
2. Primase creates the starting line for DNA Polymerase.
3. DNA Polymerase builds the new nucleotides.
4. Ligase comes in to glue the DNA strands together.
FINAL OUTCOME: 2 identical semiconservative daughter cells.

What is the relationship between genotypes, phenotypes and alleles?
Alleles are a variation of traits.
Genotypes are created by alleles.
Phenotypes are the physical representation of genotypes, the combination of alleles.
