Topoisomerase is the enzyme that unwinds the DNA during replication. It binds to the DNA, and separates the double strands and form a replication fork. After which the primer bind to the start site, and DNA polymerase starts DNA synthesis.

What is the function of DNA helicare in DNA replication?
DNA Helicase unwinds and unzips the DNA. It separates the two strands of DNA so DNA replication can occur.
How does a DNA molecule make a exact copy of itself?
they break apart and they find other DNA strands and form more DNA strands.
What is the first step in DNA synthesis?
The factoryase {extra large enzyme} Helicase unwinds and separates the two DNA strands.
How many strands are replicated in DNA replication?
Two - the leading strand and the lagging strand.
How are the new strands and the original strands of DNA divided between the two new cells?
The deoxyribon nucleic acid lines up in perfect formation and the spindle fibers come and rip apart the DNA now there are to complete copies of DNA
What separates in DNA when it copies itself?
The enzyme
What are DNA strands separated by?
Assuming this is regarding DNA replication or transcription, the enzyme helicase separates the two strands.
Which enzyme copies DNA strands?
ligase
Does helicase separates the DNA strands during replication?
yes
When an enzyme that blinds to DNA and separates the DNA strands during transcription is RNA what?
polymerase
How does RNA polymerase use DNA?
it separates the DNA strands to create a template for RNA bases
What is the function of DNA helicare in DNA replication?
DNA Helicase unwinds and unzips the DNA. It separates the two strands of DNA so DNA replication can occur.
What is the enzyme that binds and separates the DNA strands during transcription?
single-strand binding proteins
Process by which DNA copies itself?
Replication! 1) DNA splits 2) DNA copies 3) left with 2 copies of DNA! :)
