If the strands separate then it'll be a mutation that can be good, bad, or indifferent. T doesn't connect with T again if the strand were to join together so there would be a mistake there.

DNA polymerases are the enzymes responsible for joining DNA nucleotides together. In Prokaryotes - DNA Pol III is the enzyme which adds nucleotides to the new strand during DNA replication. DNA Pol I is responsible for replacing the primers with DNA nucleotides.

what are the monomers  of DNA?

The monomers of DNA are called nucleotides, and the polymer is a polynucleotide.There are four different nucleotides in DNA called A, T, G, and C for the nitrogenous base sidegroup (adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine respectively) attached to the sugar-phosphate backbone (deoxyribose-phosphate) of a nucleotide. These nucleotides can be joined in any order, permitting the "spelling" of an unlimited number of different genetic "words".


What are found in the DNA?

DNA nucleotides. Note that adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine are NOT nucleotides, but they are only the bases which make the nucleotides different.


What compounds are the building blocks of DNA macro-molecules?

Nucleotides are the monomer units that make up a DNA molecule. DNA nucleotides are composed of a deoxyribose sugar, a nitrogenous base, and a phosphate group.


What are the 4 nucleotides for DNA?

A DNA nucleotide includes a phosphate, a deoxyribose sugar and a nitrogenous base. Only the nitrogenous base changes in the four different nucleotides. The four different bases are adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C) and guanine (G).
