Do two DNA strands need to be separated before DNA replication or transcription can occur?

Yes. Also, of the two strands of DNA, only one is the template that will be transcribed, while the other strand is a noncoding strand of DNA.


How can you compare DNA to a zipper?

During the processes of DNA replication and transcription, the two strands of the DNA molecule separate, or "unzip", so that the two strands can be copied by DNA nucleotides, or the anti-sense strand of DNA can be transcribed by mRNA.


How many strands is DNA made of?

DNA is composed of two strands of DNA nucleotides.


How many strands DNA strands does HPV have?

2 strands in total I believe.


How is a DNA molecule unzipped?

DNA is, as you say, "unzipped" is a complex process. DNA usually unwinds either to replicate DNA or synthesize mRNA to make proteins. I'll use DNA replication as the example. when the process starts, it will start at hundreds of sites along the length of the DNA molecule. once started the replication will proceed in both directions. DNA helicase is the enzyme that opens the two strands, and the enzyme topoisomerase is before helicase to make sure no tension builds up as the strands unwind. after topoisomerase runs down the length, closely followed by helicase, binding proteins stick to the newly opened nucleotides to prevent the strands from sticking together. that's the first basic step of DNA replication and basically answers your question. Helicase opens it, but remember it must be triggered by a enzyme of protein in order for it to start, and then continues until the molecule is finished.

What does semi-conservative men in regard to DNA replication?

It means when the DNA is unzipped into two strands each strand serves as a template for the synthesis of another new strand. So, when the strands come back together in the double helix one strand is an old strand and one is a new strand with you now have double the DNA you started with; four strands in all.


How many strands are there at the beginning of DNA replication?

At the beginning of DNA replication there are two strands of DNA nucleotides.

What occures when 2 strands unzip and the nitrogen bases pair with different nitrogen bases?

This is the process of DNA replication. A DNA strand in the nucleus of a cell, starts off by being "unzipped" by helicase (an enzyme). Then another enzyme, DNA polymerase matches the nitrogen bases (which are freely floating in the nucleus), of each half with their matches, this forms two identical strands, of DNA.


How is the formation of messanger rna similar to DNA replication?

Both involve the DNA double helix being "unzipped" (the two strands being separated) and nucleotides attaching to the newly exposed surface. Both create a copy of the DNA and occur in the nucleus.
