Students have asked these similar questions
Which statement about Okazaki fragments is true?
Select one:
a. DNA polymerase doesn’t need a primer to build these fragments
b. They act as a primer that initiates DNA replication.
c. They correct errors made during earlier phases of DNA replication.
d. They are necessary because DNA polymerase can only build DNA in the 5’ to 3’ direction, so for one of the strands at each fork, the DNA polymerase can only buildaway from the fork.
e. They prevent the ends of chromosomes from shortening with every replication.
Which of the following molecules helps relieve the tension of unwinding parental DNA strands, by breaking DNA and rejoining it before it is replicated?
a.
Primase
b.
Single-stranded binding proteins
c.
Helicase
d.
Topoisomerase
For the statements below, indicate whether the statement applies to the leading strand, or to the lagging strand, or to both.
a. synthesized in the 5'→3' direction
b. synthesized continuously
c. require(s) DNA ligase to join fragments
d. described as a daughter strand
e. synthesized in the same direction as the movement of the replication fork
f. DNA polymerase is the enzyme involved in forming this polynucleotide.
