The term "hydrophillic" literally means water loving.
Hydrophillic substances are those that have an affinity of water, meaning they are easily dissolved and absorbed in water. Polar substances, those which have charges on the atoms of their molecules, tend to be hydrophillic due to the fact that water itself is a polar substance.
1. During DNA elongation, polymerase enzyme adds new, free nucleotides to the three prime end of the newly forming strand, elongating it in five prime to three prime direction while the telomerase protects the important genes at the end of the chromosome from been deleted as the DNA strand shorten during DNA elongation.
2. During DNA elongation, helicase enzyme separates the double stranded DNA into single strand by melting the hydrogen bond that holds the DNA molecule together thus enabling each strand to be copied while the telomerase acts by preventing the telomere from been deleted during elongation.
