they compliment each other in the sense that one always has the same pair.for example if you see green matched up with red in one part the other part where you see red again the pair will be green. please understand the colors are substituting the scientific names for the parts.

Is a newly synthesized strand half of the original stand with newly formed complimentary half?

Yes, during DNA replication, a newly synthesized strand is formed by pairing complementary nucleotides with the original strand. This results in one strand being the original and the other being newly synthesized, forming a complementary pair.


IMPORTANT After DNA replication does half of the old strand leave with half of the new strand?

The process of DNA replication is described as being semi-conservative. The complementary DNA strands are pulled apart, new matching nucleotides are connected to each separate strand, and the result is two new strands that each contain exactly one-half of the original DNA strand.


The three-dimensional shape of the DNA molecule is described as being?

The three-dimensional shape of the DNA molecule is a double helix, which resembles a twisted ladder. This structure allows the molecule to have stability and store genetic information. The double helix is made up of two strands of nucleotides that are connected by hydrogen bonds.


How is the DNA able to re associate accurately when it is lowered at room temperature greater than 85 degrees celsius?

DNA re-associates accurately after being denatured at high temperatures because it has complementary base pairing, meaning adenine pairs with thymine and guanine pairs with cytosine. When the DNA is cooled down, the complementary bases rejoin, allowing the DNA strands to reassociate accurately. Additionally, the cooling process allows the hydrogen bonds between the base pairs to reform, stabilizing the double helix structure of DNA.


What enzyme builds new DNA strands from existing strands during DNA replication?

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.

How many strands of nucleotides are in DNA?

Thousands upon thousands. Because DNA must contain all the characteristics of your being, it must be long.

What keeps DNA strands from being tangled?

Enzymes called topoisomerases help to prevent DNA strands from becoming tangled. These enzymes are responsible for managing the coiling and uncoiling of the DNA double helix during processes like replication and transcription, ensuring that the strands remain untangled and functional.

What causes two strands of DNA to split?

The answer depends on the circumstances! In a cell, during DNA replication or during translation, the two strands in a DNA molecule are separated by enzymes called topoisomerases and helicases. In a solution, the two strands of a DNA molecule can be separated by being heated. This is called DNA melting. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_melting


What role does polymerase play in DNA replication?

Polymerase is an enzyme responsible for catalyzing the synthesis of new DNA strands during DNA replication. It reads the template DNA strand and adds complementary nucleotides to the growing new strand. There are different types of polymerase enzymes involved in DNA replication, each with specific roles.


Why is DNA replication considered semiconservative?

DNA replication is semiconservative because each new double helix contains (1) old and (1) new strand. each mother strand serves as a template for a new strand.The two strands are complementary, but not identical.
