DNA replication is semi-conservative, this statement means that
Question 6 options:
a)
the new DNA molecules that are made are not identical to the original DNA molecule.
b)
the new DNA molecules that are made are only partially DNA since RNA primers are included.
c)
the new DNA molecules that are made are composed of one strand of the old DNA molecule and one strand of new DNA.
d)
of the two new DNA molecules made, one is entirely new DNA and one is entirely old new.
e)
the new DNA molecules that are made have a mixture of old and new DNA in each strand of the DNA duplex, randomly interspersed.
Match each of the following terms with the one definition that best describes it.
Any of the following: Uracil,
Cytosine, Thymine, Adenine,
Guanine
·····
Closes "nicks" between DNA
fragments, forming a covalent
bond that joins the fragments
together
Lays down a short chain of
nucleotides at the beginning of
DNA replication
Synthesizes mRNA from a DNA
template
Unwinds the DNA double helix
during DNA replication

growing DNA strand during DNA
replication
1. RNA Polymerase
2. DNA Polymerase
3. Ligase
4. Primase
5. Helicase
6. Nitrogenous Base
DNA replication is called semi-
conservative because
of the
two new strands of DNA is old DNA from
the original DNA molecule and
is new DNA.
