A. DNA Replication 1. During DNA replication, which molecule is produced? 2. Which molecule is the template? 3. How much of the DNA is replicated? 4a. Which enzyme is used to base pair the new nucleotides to the template strand of DNA? 4b. How are the double strands of the template DNA kept separated until the replication process is complete? 4c. Which enzyme is used to lay down an RNA primer which is necessary to get replication started? 4d. Which enzyme is used to separate and unwind the template strands in the DNA double helix? 4e. Which enzyme is used to stich the newly replicated pieces of DNA together?

1) The products of DNA replication are two DNA molecules. Which of the following statements about these two DNA molecules is false? a) they are sister chromatids b) they are both double-stranded DNA helices c) they carry different sets of gene alleles d) they each consist of one "old" strand, which was the template strand, and one "new" strand, which was just synthesized 2) In which of the following molecular processes is the formation of Watson-Crick type base pairs between DNA or RNA polynucleotides NOT critical to the mechanism? a) PCR b) transcription c) DNA replication d) no good answer - all of these depend to some degree upon base pairing interactions e) translation d) taking apart the nuclear membrane

1. The enzyme that can replicate DNA is called . 2. After replication is complete, the new DNAs, called , are identical to each other. 3. The new DNA strand that grows continuously in the 5' to 3' direction is called the . 4. During DNA replication, an open section of DNA, in which a DNA polymerase can replicate DNA, is called a . 5. are the short sections of DNA that are synthesized on the lagging strand of the replicating DNA.
