a. primase

200

image 4 from worksheet sequence with okazaki fragments unlabeled

label the diagram


okazaki fragments

200

what is the shape of DNA

double helix

200

image of different models of replication

which model shows semi conservative replication?

the middle one 
300

Which enzyme acts like "glue"

Ligase

300
What would the sequence of the daughter strand be?


5' ATGCGTC 3'

3' TACGCAG 5'
300

image on slide 14

label the parent and daughter strands 

parent = dark blue, daughter = light blue

300

Image in slide 34

identify the replication fork

right where the DNA splits

300

Why does DNA need to replicate?

So each new cell has DNA when the cell divides

400

What is the function of Helicase?

Unzips DNA

400

What are the three components of a DNA nucleotide?

Phosphate, sugar and nitrogenous base

400

image of DNA polymerase adding bases without a primer

image of DNA polymerase adding bases 3' to 5'

what is wrong with each image?

No primer

3' to 5' instead of 5' to 3'

400

what is the job of single strand binding protein?

Keeps single stranded DNA in place

400

Which strand do okazaki fragments occur on?

lagging

500

Which way does DNA polymerase add bases on the lagging strand? 

a. 5' --> 3'

b. 3' ---> 5'

a. 5' --> 3'

500

What one word describes that one DNA strand is 5' to 3' and the other is 3' to 5'

antiparallel 

500

first panel of image in slide 41

what happened?

mutation

500

Define semi conservative

half is the same, half is new
500

What are two things that could go wrong in DNA replication?

Possible answers (+more)

skip a base, add a base, add the wrong base, DNA gets tangled, enzyme falls off of DNA
