- What is the function of DNA polymerase? a. It degrades DNA in cells. b. It adds RNA nucleotides to a new strand. c. It coils DNA around histones to form chromosomes. d. It adds DNA nucleotides to a replicating strand. e. None of these.arrow_forwardFigure 14.14 You isolate a cell strain in which the joining of Okazaki fragments is impaired and suspect that a mutation has occurred in an enzyme found at the replication fork.

- Which of the following is correct about the function of DNA Ligase? DNA ligase is used on the leading strand and it joins any disconnected strand together O DNA ligase is used on the lagging strand which helps in joining fragments of the strand together O DNA ligase is used on the lagging strand and it aids in correcting mistakes on this specific strand O DNA ligase is used to maintain the replication fork structurearrow_forwardDNA polymerases are processive, which means that they remain tightly associated with the template strand while moving rapidly and adding nucleotides to the growing daughter stand. Which piece of the replication machinery accounts for this characteristic? Helicase Sliding Clamp Single Stranded Binding Protein Primasearrow_forwardWhat proteins are crucial for creating and maintaining DNA replication forks? Choose the best explanation. Question 2 options: Helicase creates the replication fork; primase keeps the single strands from closing shut. Helicase creates the replication fork; single-strand binding proteins keep the single strands from reuniting. Ligase creates the replication fork; DNA polymerase II keeps the single strands from reuniting. Helicase creates the replication fork; ligase keeps the single strands from closing shut.arrow_forward

Choices: 3'-5' ,5'-3' Exonuclease activity Addition of nucleotides away from the replication fork Complementary strand of the continuous strand Addition of nucleotides going to the replication forkarrow_forwardIn the following diagram of a replication fork, primers are shown as thick black lines and newly synthesized DNA is shown as squiggly lines.
