What catalyzes the formation of phosphodiester bonds between adjacent nucleotides in the DNA polymer being formed?

Because the polymerization of nucleotides is an endergonic process, energy is required for it to occur. What does DNA polymerase use as its energy source? Group of answer choices ATP that is broken into ADP and P and released Energy from photons of light Entropy created from protein digestion Nucleotides incorporated into a growing chain provide their own energy in the form of trinucleotides

Which of the following is correct about the function of DNA Ligase? DNA ligase is used on the leading strand and it joins any disconnected strand together O DNA ligase is used on the lagging strand which helps in joining fragments of the strand together O DNA ligase is used on the lagging strand and it aids in correcting mistakes on this specific strand O DNA ligase is used to maintain the replication fork structure

Which of the following is NOT true about Base Excision repair? Group of answer choices Ligase is responsible for resealing the nick in the phosphodiester backbone. Endonuclease is used to remove the damaged nucleotide. It is a preferred method of removal for larger defects in the genetic code Polymerase creates the new nucleotide to replace the damaged one Glycosylase removes damaged the damaged base before the nucleotide
