Question

What is a major difference between DNA polymerase I and DNA polymerase III?

Answer 1

Answer:

 DNA polymerase I synthesizes DNA on lagging strands and DNA polymerase III synthesizes DNA on leading strands

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

(B) DNA polymerase I synthesizes DNA on lagging strands and DNA polymerase III synthesizes DNA on leading strands

Explanation:

Both the enzymes DNA polymerase I and DNA polymerase III involved in the process of DNA Replication with specialised functions. DNA polymerase I synthesize DNA on lagging strand where it degrades RNA primer and replace it with DNA. On the other hand, DNA polymerase III synthesize DNA from 5' to 3' end on the leading and lagging strand but stops at the RNA Primer.
