Uracil. Uracil is not present in DNA, but it is present in RNA. DNA's "equivalent" base is thymine, meaning when DNA is transcribed into RNA, the places where thymine would go instead has uracil.

Because it is going to copy into a mRNA and RNA only contains C,G,A,U.
Instead of DNA which contains C,G,A,T.

Enzyme used to position nucleotides during DNA replication?
DNA polymerase
What is uracil in RNA?
a base containing nitrogen that is found in RNA (but not in DNA) and derived from pyrimidine; pairs with adenine
What part of translation depends on the same base paring rule that is used in transcription and DNA replication?
complementry bases
What kind of molecule is primase?
Primase is an enzyme. It is used to synthesize a short RNA fragment called a primer during DNA replication.
What term is used to describe the the process of copying DNA?
Replication is the term used to describe the process of copying DNA. Or perhaps transcription.
Which nitrogen base isn't used during replication?
Uracil
What nitrogen base isn't used during DNA replication?
uracil.
Why is an nitrogen is important nutrient?
Nitrogen is used for DNA replication, so you need it for cell replication and growth.
During DNA replication each strand of DNA is used as a template to produce a complementary strand of DNA. This process is shown below. Which base will attach to location 1?
Guanine
During replication what enzyme is used to split the DNA molecule in half?
helicase
One of two purines used as a nitrogen base in nucleotides?
adenine
Were both Nitrogen Mustards and Sulfur Mustards used during World War 1?
No the nitrogen mustards were stockpiled during world war one but, they were never used.
What 2 proteins are used during DNA replication?
The two proteins used during DNA replication are DNA polymerase and DNA helicase. DNA polymerase adds nucleotides to the growing DNA strand, while DNA helicase unwinds the double helix structure of DNA to expose the template strands for replication.
How many strands of DNA are used as templates during replication?
5'-3' : One strand
Enzyme used to position nucleotides during DNA replication?
DNA polymerase
What molecule is active during the last step pf replication?
I can find no reference to a molecule used in "pf" replication. Do you have another term in mind? Please resubmit your question if you do.
What is a special identifier used for replication?
replication ID
