In DNA replication: the enzyme that "unzips" the doublr helix
Helacase
11 of 18
In DNA replication: the two unzipped strands act as ...... on which new strands can be built

In DNA replication:the enzyme that joins the free nucleotides together to form a matching polynucleotide chain
Polymerase
13 of 18
The new DNA d-helixes each contain a strand of the old polynucleotide chain and a new strand this means that replication is said to be
Semiconservative

Transcription:what attaches to the DNA double helix at the beginning of the gene?
RNA polymerase
15 of 18
Transcription: RNA polymerase lines up free ....... along the DNA template which then form the new mRNA strand
Nucleotides
16 of 18
Transcription: when the mRNa has separated from it, the hydrogen bonds between what parts of the DNA re-form?
uncoiled strands
