However, in eukaryotes only, there are extra sequences in the DNA and mRNA that don't code for proteins called introns. This mRNA is then further processed:
- Introns get cut out
- The coding sequences get spliced together
- A special nucleotide "cap" gets added to one end
- A long tail consisting of 100 to 200 adenine nucleotides is added to the other end
What else can I help you with?
Is it true that Replication occurs simultaneously at many points on a DNA molecule?
Yes it is. The eukaryotic DNA polymerase works much slower than the prokaryotic DNA polymerase, working at around 50 bases per second. With as many as 80 million bases to replicate the job is achieved in about one hour by having many replication forks. The simple answer: It's quicker.
What do the two sides of the DNA molecule do in DNA Replication?
There are four bases in a DNA "ladder"... It is called a ladder because of the "two sides" and the bases... In DNA replication, they obviously replicate and the two sides are replicated as are the bases. (A,T,C,G)
What process of two rails or sides break apart and attract new nucleotide bases to form a new and complete strand?
The process you're referring to is DNA replication. During DNA replication, the two sides of the double helix molecule unwind, creating two separate strands. Enzymes then attract new nucleotide bases to each strand, forming two new and identical DNA molecules.
Which assembles the complementary nucleotide bases during replication?
DNA Polymerase
What DNA begins to uncoil DNA?
Helicase is the enzyme responsible for unwinding the double-stranded DNA molecule during DNA replication. It breaks the hydrogen bonds between the nitrogenous bases, separating the two strands and allowing for the replication process to occur.

What best describes a difference between transcription and DNA replication?
The difference between transcription and DNA replication is that transcription uses uracil.
What is the process by which a DNA molecule is copied called?
The process by which a DNA molecule is copied is called DNA replication. During DNA replication, the two strands of the double helix separate and each strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new complementary strand. This results in two identical copies of the DNA molecule.
What nitrogen bases floating in the nucleus pair up with on each half of DNA molecule?
A pairs with T ,G pairs with C , T pairs with A, G pairs with C during replication .
What Nitrogen bases floating in the nucleus pairs up with what on each half of the DNA molecule.?
A pairs with T ,G pairs with C , T pairs with A, G pairs with C during replication .
What enzyme is responsible for unwinding the DNA molecule for replication?
The enzyme responsible for unwinding the DNA molecule for replication is called helicase. Helicase breaks the hydrogen bonds between the DNA base pairs, allowing the two strands to separate and expose the nucleotide bases for replication.
What type of bonds are broken during the unwinding stage of replication?
hydrogen in bases

Helicase is the enzyme responsible for unwinding the double-stranded DNA molecule during DNA replication. It breaks the hydrogen bonds between the nitrogenous bases, separating the two strands and allowing for the replication process to occur.
What breaks the bonds between the nitrogen bases of the DNA molecule?
Your answer is "Helicase". This is the enzyme responsible for the unzipping of the DNA molecule, or in other words, the breakage of the bonds of its nitrogen bases.
