- How does DNA replication occur in a precise manner to ensure that identical genetic information is put into the new chromatid? See Figures 8.12 and 8.13. FIGURE 8.12 In DNA replication, the two polynucleotide strands uncoil, and each is a template for synthesizing a new strand. A replicated DNA molecule contains one new strand and one old strand. This mechanism is called semiconservative replication. FIGURE 8.13 A close-up look at the process of DNA replication. (a) As the strands uncoil, bases are added to the newly synthesized strand by complementary base pairing with bases in the template strand. The new bases are linked together by DNA polymerase. (b) DNA synthesis can proceed only in the 5 3 direction; newly synthesized DNA on one template strand is made in short segments and linked together by the enzyme DNA ligase.arrow_forwardDiscuss how the polymerase chain reaction is based on DNA replicationarrow_forwardDescribe the functions of the following proteins during DNA replication: (i) Polymerase I (ii) DnaA (iii) Telomerasearrow_forward
- Arrange the events of replication chronologically from A (first) to G (last event): -Sealing of phosphodiester linkage -Replacement of RNA primer with new DNA strand -Unwinding of the double helix -Addition of short RNA primers -Recognition of origin of replication -Synthesis of complementary DNA strand at the leading strand of the DNA -Excision of short RNA primersarrow_forwardDefine DNA replication/synthesis and semiconservative replication. In addition, describe and/or define the role(s) of each of the following in the process of DNA replication/synthesis: DNA template strand, 5’ and 3’ ends, DNA helicase, DNA polymerase, single-strand binding proteins, topoisomerase, primase, Okazaki fragments, leading strand and lagging strand.arrow_forwardDescribe the functions of the following proteins during DNA replication: (i) Polymerase epsilon (ii) Polymerase alpha (iii) Dna A (iv) Telomerasearrow_forward

- (a) What is the function of helicase in DNA replication?(b) What is the function of DNA polymerase?(c) What are replication forks? Compare and contrast leading and lagging strands. Answer all pleasearrow_forwardDNA replication is vital for successful cell division. Explain the process of DNA replication. Make sure to use the following terms: helicase, S-phase, DNA polymerase and DNA ligase, template, free nucleotides. Use the diagram if it helps you illustrate your points.arrow_forwardMedgie is creating his science fair project on DNA replication. His final display board shows the following. Human DNA Replication Steps Step 1 DNA unwinds in the nucleus Step 2 Complementary base pairs are deleted Step 3 DNA rewinds back together Step 4 The newly made DNA helix is placed in a cell formed in Mitosis According to Medgie's project, which of the following identifies and explains which of the steps is incorrect? O Step 4 is incorrect because not all human cells require DNA. O Step 3 is incorrect because the DNA remains unwound to be transcribed into RNA. Step 2 is incorrect because the complementary base pairs are used as a template, not deleted. Step 1 is incorrect because DNA doesn't unwind in the nucleus, instead it unwinds in the cytoplasm Previousarrow_forward
