What does the term unzipping refer to in DNA replication?
Breaking Hydrogen Bonds.
DNA replication results in two identical DNA molecules. What role do DNA helicases have in DNA replication?
DNA helicases break the hydrogen bonds in the DNA molecule
What type of molecules are bonded together by hydrogen bonds in DNA?
Nitrogenous bases are held together by hydrogen bonds, thus making them easier to separate during DNA replication.
What characteristic of hydrogen bonds make them work well during DNA replication?
because they are tuff
In order to replicate where do DNA molecules separate?
At the hydrogen bonds between bases with the help of the enzyme helicase.
What do DNA polymerase do in DNA replication?
It breaks the hydrogen bonds between the base pairs
What bond have to be broken in order for DNA replication to occur?
hydrogen bonds
What does the term unzipping refer to in DNA replication?
Breaking Hydrogen Bonds.
DNA replication results in two identical DNA molecules. What role do DNA helicases have in DNA replication?
DNA helicases break the hydrogen bonds in the DNA molecule
What is the weak chemical bonds important in holding the dna double helix together is the?
The chemical bond that holds the double helix together in DNA are the hydrogen bonds. Hydrogen bonds are the weakest making them perfect for DNA replication.
What type of molecules are bonded together by hydrogen bonds in DNA?
Nitrogenous bases are held together by hydrogen bonds, thus making them easier to separate during DNA replication.
When do hydrogen bonds between the nitrogen bases break?
In preparation for DNA replication or transcription.
What bonds are broken in order the unzip the DNA strands?
The hydrogen bonds are broken in order to unzip the DNA strand. This all occurs during the DNA replication process.
What characteristic of hydrogen bonds make them work well during DNA replication?
because they are tuff
What kinds of bonds are broken between N-bases when DNA unzips during replication?
Hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) are broken between the nitrogenous bases when the two strands of DNA separate. These bonds are not as strong as the covalent bonds holding together the sugar and phosphate in the backbone, so the H-bonds break first.
In order to replicate where do DNA molecules separate?
At the hydrogen bonds between bases with the help of the enzyme helicase.
In the replication of DNA what kind of molecule bonds with an unpaired cytosine mucleotide?
In the replication of DNA Thymine bonds with cytosine.
