When one strand of the DNA molecule is unzipped, the exposed bases become available for complementary base pairing. This process allows an enzyme called DNA polymerase to build a new complementary strand by adding nucleotides according to the base pairing rules (A with T and C with G).

What does semi-conservative men in regard to DNA replication?
It means when the DNA is unzipped into two strands each strand serves as a template for the synthesis of another new strand. So, when the strands come back together in the double helix one strand is an old strand and one is a new strand with you now have double the DNA you started with; four strands in all.
How many strands of DNA are used to make complementary strands of DNA?
Two strands of DNA are used to make complementary strands of DNA. One original strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new strand, resulting in a double-stranded DNA molecule with base pairing between the original and newly synthesized strands.
If the sequence of nucleotides of one strand of the two strands of DNA was known is it possible to use that information to determine the sequence of the second strand?
Yes because the bases pair uniquely when the strands are joined together.
How many strands of DNA did you start with and end with?
we started with a single strand DNA molecule.
What are the whip like strands on dinoflagellates?
The whip-like strands on dinoflagellates are called flagella. They are used for movement and navigation in their aquatic environment. Dinoflagellates can have one or two flagella, which help propel them through the water.
How many strands of RNA are transcribed from the two unzipped strands of DNA?
One strand of RNA is transcribed from each of the two unzipped strands of DNA during transcription. RNA polymerase synthesizes a complementary RNA strand to one of the DNA strands.
How many strand of mRNA are transcribed from the two unzipped strands of DNA?
One mRNA strand is made.
Can one subscribe to Unzipped Magazine on their website?
No, one can no longer subscribe to Unzipped Magazine on their website. This magazine has ended publication so it no longer offers subscriptions on the web, by phone, or by mail.

How many syllables are in the word strands?
one syllable
What enzyme unzips DNA and RNA?
the one that breaks it is called Helicase and the one that adds it is called Polymerase.
What is one of the two strands of a chromosomes that become visible during meiosis or mitosis?
daughter strands
What must happen to a DNA molecule before RNA polymerase can make RNA?
The DNA molecule must first unwind and separate into two strands. This process is called transcription, during which RNA polymerase can then read and transcribe one of the DNA strands to synthesize RNA.
How many strands are in RNA?
one strand
How many strands DNA strands does HPV have?
HPV (human papillomavirus) has a double-stranded DNA genome, composed of one circular DNA molecule.
How do you fray jeans?
Cut off the bottom seam entirely, then pull the strands that loop around the bottom out one by one until you get a fringe from the remaining long strands of fabric.
What is the result when DNA ligase has completed its job?
Two new strands of DNA. <--- Gradpoint/NovaNet
