What is a polymerase commonly used for?

Polymerase are best know for their role in DNA and RNA replication. The polymerase reads the DNA or RNA strand as a template to synthesize a new strand.


What happens when DNA replicates semiconservatively?

This means that the new double-strand will have one strand of the original DNA and one new strand. This is known as semi-conservative because one strand is conserved (not replaced).

What is the strand?

The template strand, if reffering to DNA, is the strand of the DNA that is copied to make more DNA.


The continually elongating strand of new dna at one side of a replication fork during dna replication is known as?

The strand of DNA that is being continually created is known as the leading strand. The strand that is being created in sections/loops is known as the lagging strand. The reason that these two strands are created differently is because the two strands of DNA run in different directions (they are anti-parallel). This means that because new nucleotides can only be added in a 5'-3' direction, the two strands cannot be created in the same method.
