The DNA strands are bound and kept separated by hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs.
Enzymes unwind DNA!
RNA polymerase is the enzyme that binds to the DNA promoter region and separates the DNA strands during transcription. It then synthesizes an mRNA molecule using one of the strands as a template.
The junction between separated strands of DNA is called a replication fork.
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.
The enzyme that binds to DNA and separates the DNA strands during transcription is RNA polymerase. It is responsible for synthesizing a complementary RNA strand using one of the DNA strands as a template. This process is essential for gene expression and protein synthesis.

Assuming this is regarding DNA replication or transcription, the enzyme helicase separates the two strands.
dna binding protein binds the 2 anti parallel strands of dna together
DNA helicase is the enzyme that aids DNA in unzipping during transcription.
Hydrogen bonding infers that the two strands are VERY close together so the strands are practically right next to each other. As the strands wind up in a larger scale they wrap around proteins to keep them secure and finally form a combined material called chromatin which make up chromosomes in eukaryote cells.
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.
C binds with G, A binds with T. Therefore the complementary strand of CCATCG IS GGTAGC.
DNA replication
The replication fork is a structure formed during DNA replication where the parental DNA strands are separated and new complementary strands are synthesized. It allows for the simultaneous synthesis of two new DNA strands in opposite directions. The replication fork moves along the DNA strand as replication proceeds.
Phosphodiester bonds bind the strands together. A phosphodiester bond is a phosphorus atom involved in two ester bonds.
