What is primer in pcr?
A primer (oligonucleotide of a specific sequence) is required for Taq polymerase to extend the template strand by adding complementary nucleotides. The function of the primer is to anneal to the template strand at a very specific site and facilitate the initiation of strand elongation mediated by Taqploymerase.
Why does telomerase need to have a built-in template for DNA synthesis?
Telomerase is involved in adding DNA to the end of the lagging strand.
In DNA replication DNA nucleotides serve as a template and a new DNA molecule is made also ---------strandes if DNA serve as templates?
Lagging strand
Which strand would be the template for the leading strand?
3-24=7
Semiconservative replication involes a template what is the template?
one strand of the DNA molecule
Is The lagging strand the strands of parental DNA?
which statement about dna replication is correct? A. the leading strand is one of the strands of parnetal Dna b. the leading strand is built continuously, and the lagging strand is built in pieces c. the lagging strand is one of the strands of parental Dna d. Dna ligase helps assemble the leading strand e. the lagging strand is built continuously

Which strand (leading or lagging) will have the okazaki fragments?
The lagging strand.

Telomerase is involved in adding DNA to the end of the lagging strand.
Where does ssb protein bind on lagging strand or on leading strand?
ssb protein bind to the lagging strand as leading strand is invovled in dna replication and lagging strand is invovled in okazaki fragment formation
In DNA replication DNA nucleotides serve as a template and a new DNA molecule is made also ---------strandes if DNA serve as templates?
Lagging strand
There is a y shaped replication fork on each side of each replication bubble what are the sides of the replication fork called?
One is known as the Leading strand, and the other is known as the Lagging strand.
Which strand in dna synthesis is created in pieces?
The lagging strand
Role of additives in PCR?
Reactants: (dNTPs, template DNA (to be amplified), primers(bind to DNA to begin elongation of strand), DNA Polymerase (elongate DNA), & MgCl2) in buffer + H2O
What is the definition of a lagging strand?
A lagging strand is one of two strands of DNA found at the replication fork, or junction, in the double helix; the other strand is called the leading strand. A lagging strand requires a slight delay before undergoing replication, and it must undergo replication discontinuously in small fragments.
Does helicase catalyze the elongation of a new DNA strand?
No.
What is the name of the strand that replicates in a direction toward the replication fork?
Lagging strand.
