DNA polymerase does not break down any substance. It is an enzyme that catalyzed the growth of the complimentary DNA strand. A template is requires for this enzyme to function. It becomes attached to single stranded DNA and encodes the complimentary strand by assembling nucleotides.

∙ 11y agoI believe they break up hydrogen bonds of complementary pairs before the process of DNA Replication. Base pairing - Adenine pairs w/ Thymine A=T
Guanine pairs w/ Cytosine G=C

Principle enzyme involved in DNA replication?
DNA Polymerase.
What chemical is an enzyme that add nucleotides to a new strand of DNA during replication?
DNA Polymerase is the enzyme which adds new nucleotides during replication.
What class of enzyme is DNA polymerase?
DNA polymerase is a catalyst, by catalyzing the synthesis of new DNA by adding nucleotides to a preexisting chain. There are several different DNA polymerases, but DNA polymerase I and DNA polymerase II play the major roles in DNA replication.
What enzyme binds to DNA and is responsible for making a transcript RNA of DNA?
RNA mRNA tRNA
What enzymes are responsible for replication of the DNA molecule?
Helicase is the enzymes that splits the double helix into two separate strands, and DNA Polymerase (as opposed to RNA Polymerase) joins the nucleotides together in the new strands being created.
Principle enzyme involved in DNA replication?
DNA Polymerase.
What chemical is an enzyme that add nucleotides to a new strand of DNA during replication?
DNA Polymerase is the enzyme which adds new nucleotides during replication.
Is the enzyme that allows replication to occur DNA polymerase or RNA polymerase?
DNA polymerase replicated DNA. RNA polymerase creates mRNA to be used in protein synthesis. RNA polymerase does not replicated DNA.
What is the name of the enzyme that match the DNA bases?
DNA polymerase matches the bases on the parent strand.
What enzyme transcribes DNA?
The enzyme that transcribes the DNA into RNA is called RNA polymerase.
What enzyme elongates DNA?
DNA Polymerase III
Which molecule is active during the last step during DNA replication?
DNA ligase. Apex
What is the processof DNA polymerases add complementary nucleotides to each strand which results in the formation of two identical DNA molecules?
dna polymerase
What class of enzyme is DNA polymerase?
DNA polymerase is a catalyst, by catalyzing the synthesis of new DNA by adding nucleotides to a preexisting chain. There are several different DNA polymerases, but DNA polymerase I and DNA polymerase II play the major roles in DNA replication.
What enzyme Cuts out the RNA primer on the replicated DNA molecule and replaces it with the appropriate DNA nucleotides?
DNA polymerase :)
What enzyme binds to DNA and is responsible for making a transcript RNA of DNA?
RNA mRNA tRNA
Enzyme used to position nucleotides during DNA replication?
DNA polymerase
