Vocab
This enzyme is responsible for unzipping and separating the two strands of a DNA molecule
What is DNA helicase?
True or False - All Living things has to perform DNA replication
What is 'True'
This will happen if DNA replication is not done properly
What is mutation or cell death?
DNA stands for
What is Deoxyribonucleic Acid?
The directionality of DNA is called this
What is 'antiparallel?'
This enzyme is responsible for laying down short segments of RNA along the DNA template strands
What is primase?
Primers are made of
What are RNA?
DNA replication has to happen before this major event of cell
What is cell division?
This is why DNA replication occurs
What is 'in order to make a second, complete set of DNA instructions?'
Does DNA replication require access to one or two strands of DNA?
What is 'both strands?'
This enzyme is responsible for adding new DNA base pairs and creating new strands of DNA
What is DNA polymerase?
True or False - DNA need to be unzipped before replication can start
What is True?
This enzyme is responsible gluing the pieces of DNA together?
What is Ligase?
DNA replication is called this since the new DNA is made of one old and one new strand
What is Semi-conservative?
DNA polymerase can only move in this direction
What is 5' --> 3'?
This enzyme is responsible for scanning both new strands of DNA and sealing all the fragments of DNA together
What is ligase?
These are short fragments of DNA synthesized in the lagging strand
What are Okazaki fragments?
DNA replication is described as this - made of one new and old strand
What is 'semi conservative?'
These is one of the two major reasons why DNA Replication must occur in opposite directions
What is 1) because DNA is antiparallel and 2) DNA polymerase can only move in one direction?
DNA replication must occur in order for this process to happen properly
What is cell division?
These strand needs multiple primers and makes short copies of DNA
What is lagging strand?
What is leading strand?
True or False - DNA replication needs enzymes to make it work
What is True?
True
True or False - DNA replication is a tightly controlled process and DNA polymerase can also proofread the newly made DNA.
What is True?
