three different roles in DNA polymerase are
1. binding of enzymes to existing DNA
2. Unwinding of the double helix
3. Synthesis of a new matching strand for each existing strand
DNA polymerase polymerizes deoxyribonucleotides to DNA, essentially replicating it. Once the original DNA double helix is separated into two single strands, DNA polymerase moves down the strands in a 5' - 3' direction resulting in two double helixes from the one original.
to add nucleotides to the end of a growing DNA strand
DNA polymerase adds bases to the 3' end during replication. It matches the c with G and A with U during replication. Never add to the 5' end!

DNA Polymerase III
The enzyme that transcribes the DNA into RNA is called RNA polymerase.
DNA polymerase III DNA polymerase I DNA Ligase DNA Helicase
RNA polymerase
In humans, many enzymes are involved in DNA replication. Among them are: DNA polymerase I DNA polymerase III Ligase Primase Helicase DNA polymerase I and III perform the bulk of the actual reproduction--their job is to add nucleotides to the growing strands. The others perform specialized functions and are essential to the process.
DNA Polymerase III
DNA Polymerase III is responsible for adding new nucleotides to the strand being created. DNA Polymerase I replaces the primers with DNA nucleotides. The fragments are then joined together by ligase, and a new strand has been created.
More than two enzymes are involved. However, the main ones are DNA Polymerase I and DNA Polymerase III. DNA Polymerase III adds new nucleotides and DNA Polymerase I removes primers.

To split DNA strands to create doubles.
DNA polymerase I, II, and III are enzymes involved in DNA replication in prokaryotes. DNA polymerase I is responsible for removing RNA primers during DNA replication and filling the gaps with DNA nucleotides. DNA polymerase II is involved in DNA repair pathways, particularly in response to DNA damage. DNA polymerase III is the main enzyme responsible for synthesizing a new DNA strand during replication. It has a high processivity and is the primary enzyme involved in synthesizing the leading and lagging strands of DNA.
pol 1 - exonuclease activity pol 2 - dna repair pol 3 - primary replication enzyme
DNA Polymerase III is responsible for adding new nucleotides to the strand being synthesised. Also involved in DNA replication are DNA Polymerase I which replaces primers with nucleotides, and DNA Ligase which joins fragments of DNA together.
