DNA replication occurs in the 5' to 3' direction. This means that new nucleotides are added to the growing strand at the 3' end, while the template strand is read in the opposite direction, from 3' to 5'. This directionality is essential for the accurate synthesis of DNA and is facilitated by the enzyme DNA polymerase.
What else can I help you with?
Why must cells be able to both transcribe and replicate their DNA?
The DNA only needs to replicate if the cell is going to divide. In a dividing cell the DNA must replicate in order to provide a complete copy of the genome to each new cell.
What stage DNA replicate?
S Phase of Interphase
What is the importance of DNA transcrip?
DNA transcrip transcribes the DNA so that RNA may use it and replicate it.
How does the DNA molecule replicate itself?
through replication
What if the cell replicates but has no DNA?
It cannot replicate without DNA. All living things are made up of DNA.
How does the cell replicate DNA?
Cells do not replicate "In DNA". Cells replicate their DNA during the process of cell division.
Why must cells be able to both transcribe and replicate their DNA?
The DNA only needs to replicate if the cell is going to divide. In a dividing cell the DNA must replicate in order to provide a complete copy of the genome to each new cell.
In what direction can DNA polymerase only build?
DNA polymerase can only build new DNA strands in the 5' to 3' direction.
What stage DNA replicate?
S Phase of Interphase
How does the DNA replicate?
sperm
Where does DNA replicate?
in the ribosome
Can DNA polymerase only add nucleotides in the 5' to 3' direction during DNA replication?
Yes, DNA polymerase can only add nucleotides in the 5' to 3' direction during DNA replication.
Does DNA replicate itself?
Yes
Why can DNA only be synthesized in the 5' to 3' direction?
DNA can only be synthesized in the 5' to 3' direction because the enzyme responsible for DNA replication, DNA polymerase, can only add new nucleotides to the 3' end of the growing DNA strand. This results in the formation of a new DNA strand that is complementary to the original template strand.
What is the rule of DNA polymerase in replication?
DO NOT replicate it
Why can't DNA polymerase synthesize in the 3' to 5' direction?
DNA polymerase can only synthesize DNA in the 5' to 3' direction because it can only add nucleotides to the 3' end of the growing DNA strand. This is due to the structure of the DNA molecule and the way the nucleotides are arranged.
Why is it necessary the cell copies its DNA?
cells must copy their DNA to replicate
