What is the enzyme that uses one strand of DNA as a template to assemble nucleotides into a strand of RNA?
RNA polymerase is the enzyme that uses one strand of DNA as a template to assemble nucleotides into a strand of RNA during transcription.
Why is the lagging strand replicated with stretches of Okazaki fragments and that is why its synthesis is considered to be?
The lagging strand is replicated discontinuously because DNA synthesis can only occur in one direction, so it is synthesized in short stretches called Okazaki fragments. This helps to ensure that both strands are replicated accurately and efficiently.
What are the short segments produced in the formation of the 3'-5' strand of DNA called?
During DNA replication, the lagging strand is replicated ~1000 (E. coli) base pairs at a time, forming numerous "Okazaki fragments".Okazaki fragments form because polymerase is only able to replicate DNA in one direction, but DNA is double stranded, with the strands running anti parallel (in opposite directions). The polymerase waits for a region of DNA to be unwound, and while the leading strand is replicated continuously, on the lagging strand the polymerase waits until a region of single stranded DNA is produced before replicating it. This discontinous replication forms the Okazaki fragments, which can then be joined together by ligase (although a different polymerase enzyme, pol I in E. coli, is needed as well to replace the RNA primers with DNA).
What is the name of the enzyme responsible for adding nucleotides to the 3' end of a growing DNA strand?
The enzyme responsible for adding nucleotides to the 3' end of a growing DNA strand is called DNA polymerase.
What is the name of the enzyme responsible for incorporating new complementary DNA nucleotides into the growing strand?
The enzyme responsible for incorporating new complementary DNA nucleotides into the growing strand is called DNA polymerase.
What is RTase?
An enzyme called reverse transcriptase, which creates a DNA strand from an mRNA strand.
Can you tell the difference between the original and the replicated strand?
Yes, the original strand of DNA is typically referred to as the template strand, while the replicated strand is the newly synthesized strand that complements the original. The original strand contains the original sequence of nucleotides, whereas the replicated strand will have the same sequence but may include errors if replication is not accurate. Additionally, the replicated strand can also differ from the original in terms of post-replication modifications or the presence of newly synthesized nucleotides.
What is A strand of replicated DNA formed during prophase called?
A strand of replicated DNA formed during prophase is called a sister chromatid. Sister chromatids are identical copies of each other produced during DNA replication and are held together by a structure called the centromere.
When DNA is replicated the original molecule serves as a?
template for creating a new complementary strand. The enzyme DNA polymerase adds nucleotides to the new strand following base-pairing rules with the template strand. This process results in two identical DNA molecules.
What is the enzyme that uses one strand of DNA as a template to assemble nucleotides into a strand of RNA?
RNA polymerase is the enzyme that uses one strand of DNA as a template to assemble nucleotides into a strand of RNA during transcription.
What unwinds in multipule areas as dns is replicated?
The lagging strand. It is replicated in Okazaki fragments.

What enzyme is responsible for decodingthe DNA strand into an mRNA?
The enzyme responsible for decoding the DNA strand into an mRNA is called RNA polymerase. It catalyzes the synthesis of mRNA during transcription by matching complementary RNA nucleotides with the DNA template strand.
When a strand of DNA is ATCG what would the complementary pairings be for the replicated strand of DNA?
TAGC.
