What is the major role of DNA polymerase in the DNA replication? a. Attached RNA primers to initiate the addition of complementary nucleotide sequence at the 5’ to 3’direction b. Adds up new complementary nucleotide sequence at the 3’ to 5’ direction of the DNA template. c. Unwinds the double helix by breaking the bonds at the 3’ to 5’ polymerization activity. d.It transiently cuts each strand to prevent supercoil at the 5’ to 3’ polymerization activity complementary to the RNA strand
What can cause mutations in the DNA sequence? Select all that apply. a.Exposure of cells to ionizing radiation b.Failure of repair enzymes to recognize mismatched nucleotides before and during DNA replication c.Recognition of mismatched bases by repair enzymes before and during DNA replication d.Nucleotide errors occurring during DNA replication
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.

Recognition of mismatched bases by repair enzymes before and during DNA replication C. Exposure of cells to ionizing radiation D. Nucleotide errors occurring during DNA replication
A student mixes various molecule needed for DNA replication. When he adds DNA, replication occurs, but each DNA duplex consists of a normal DNA strand paired with numerous segments of DNA a few hundred nucleotides long. What has been left out of the mixture? A. NTPs B. DNA polymerase III C. ATP D. DNA polymerase I E. DNA ligase
In DNA replication, what is meant when we say it is “semi-conservative”? a. One new DNA molecule contains the parent strands and the other DNA molecule contains only new strands b. Both new DNA strands contain a parent strand and a template strand c. The new DNA molecules are exactly like the original strand d. Some of the genes are replicated, some aren’t
DNA strands are anti-parallel and DNA polymerase can only synthesize DNA in a 5' to 3' direction. How does the enzyme synthesize both strands at the same time? A. The leading strand is sythesised in Okazaki fragments B. The lagging strand is synthesised in short Okazaki fragments. C. Only one strand is replicated. D. There are more than one DNA polymerase involved.

DNA ligase 4. RNA primer 5. gyrase 6. DNA polymerase 53°F Cloudy 3 Q Search $ F5 FR
The Sanger method of DNA sequencing uses a mixture of DNTPS and ddNTPs, which are missing oxygen atoms at both the 2' and 3' carbons. What is the role of the ddNTPs? O A. They stop replication because they are not able to bind to the growing DNA strand. O B. They stop replication because the next nucleotide in the growing strand cannot bind to them. O C. The enhance replication because DNA polymerase selectively adds them to the growing DNA strand. O D. They enhance replication because they form additional hydrogen bonds with the complimentary DNA strand. ered MacBook Air 80 F3 D00 F4 F1 F2 F6 F7 23 & 2 3 5 6 %244
