Question

DNA replication

Answer 1

Answer:

Uses each strand of a DNA molecule as a template for the creation of a new strand. (Option A)

Explanation:

DNA replication: It is defined as the uses of each strand of a DNA double helix act as a template for the creation of a new complementary strand. During the process of DNA replication, one leading strand (new strand) is made as a continuous piece and another lagging strand is made in small pieces.

DNA replication process, in addition to DNA polymerase, requires other enzymes such as DNA ligase, DNA helicase, DNA primase, and topoisomerase. DNA polymerase is the key molecule in the DNA replication, it is responsible for the synthesizing DNA. They help to add one by one nucleotide to the growing DNA chain and incorporating only those which are act as complementary to the template.
