yes they are because the templates are grater in mass as well.

What do the template strands of DNA always begin with?

DNA is made of of two complimentary strands, the coding strand and the template strand. When DNA is transcribed (made into messenger RNA which can be converted by ribosomes into proteins) the DNA splits open and free nucleotide bases bind to the template strand. DNA is made of T/C/G/A and RNA is made of U/C/G/A nucleotide bases. G and C bind (they are said to be 'complimentary') A and T bind and in RNA U and A bind (so U replaces T.) The newly formed RNA strand (made on the template stand of DNA) is 'complimentary' to the template but the same as the coding strand of DNA. Hence the template is used to produce RNA which is a copy of the coding strand. Either strand of DNA can act as the template/coding strand. Hope that is a little bit helpful!


What initially determines which DNA strand is the template strand and therefore in which direction RNA polymerase ii moves along the DNA?

the specific sequence of bases along the DNA strands


What enzyme reads the DNA template?

Various DNA polymerases read the DNA template during replication of DNA. Various RNA polymerases read the DNA template during transcription.


What does semi-conservative mean regard to DNA replication?

replicated DNA is made of one old strand and one new strand.


Is the condon the sequence of the three nitrogenous bases in the DNA template that signal the beginning of a gene?

That would be a start codon.


What enzyme connects the new bases to the old bases in the DNA template?

The central enzyme involved is DNA polymerase, which catalyzes the joining of deoxyribonucleoside 5′-triphosphates (dNTPs) to form the growing DNA chain.


RNA molecule that is template for translation?

DNA serves as a template for transcribing mRNA.


How does a DNA molecule act as a template?

Template DNA is a DNA you want to amplify. So you should know what you are amplifying before a PCR or you can make it by sequencing your PCR product.


The sequence of bases in DNA determines the sequence of what?

When a new DNA is formed , two strands of old DNA open and act as a template for synthesis of two new strands of DNA .Sequence of bases in new strand of DNA is determined by old strand and it is based on complementarity i.e. A pairs with T and G Pairs with C .


What are the two single strands of DNA?

The strand used as a template for mRNA during transcription is called the antisense strand. The DNA strand not used as a template is called the sense strand.Read more: What_are_the_two_DNA_strands
