Answer:

Helicase enzyme melts the DNA double helix and forms single stranded DNA strands.

Explanation:

Helicases are ATP dependent enzymes that bind to the DNA at the origin of replication. Helicases move along the DNA and use the energy of ATP to breakdown the hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs that otherwise hold the two DNA strands together.  

Breaking of hydrogen bonds releases two DNA strands from each other. These single-stranded DNA molecules then serve as the template for DNA replication.

Hydrogen is the simplest element it has an atomic number of 1. There are three hydrogen isotopes: H1, H2, and H3. Explain how th
Archy [21]
All isotopes of hydrogen will always contain one proton, as a change in the amount of protons will change the substance. Assuming all isotopes aren’t ions and therefore don’t have a charge, then each of these isotopes has one electron. The only difference between them is the amount of neutrons to account for the different atomic masses.

H1
one proton
one electron
zero neutrons

H2
one proton
one electron
one neutron

H3
