List 3 differences between a DNA & RNA molecule
DNA is double stranded; RNA is single stranded
DNA has Thymine base; RNA has Uracil
DNA has a deoxyribose sugar; RNA: ribose sugar
DNA can't leave the nucleus; RNA has to leave the nucleus
Draw the process of DNA Replication with the following terms: Helicase, RNA Primer, DNA Polymerase, and DNA Ligase
Helicase unzip two strands of DNA
RNA primer binds to the DNA strands and acts as a starting point of synthesis.
DNA polymerase adds complimentary bases
DNA ligase "glues" or seal two DNA strands together.
