DNA Replication Tutorial-McGraw Hill Video CLASS SET

Now let’s start the replication process!

1.  What are the three parts of a nucleotide?

2.  LIST all of the enzymes that play a role in DNA replication.

3.  What makes up the backbone of the DNA helix?

4.  What makes up the “steps of the ladder” of the DNA helix?

5.  What does “antiparallel” mean if we are talking about DNA?

6.  What are the base-pairing rules (Chargaff’s Rule)?

Now let’s start the replication process!

7.  Which enzyme is responsible for cutting apart (or “unzipping”) the DNA?

8.  What enzyme is responsible for adding nucleotides to the growing DNA strand?

9.  What is the name of the strand that is grown “continuously”?

10.  What is the name of the strand that is made in sections?

11.  What is the name of those small “segments”?

12.  What is the name of the enzyme that “seals” the space between the DNA backbone of the newly made strand ? What kind of bond forms between the new sugar-phosphate backbone?

13.  What kind of bonds form between the new nitrogenous bases? How many of these bonds form between A-T? How many of these bonds form between C-G?

14.  What happens if an “incorrect” or “wrong” nucleotide is added?
