Which of the following replication proteins is correctly paired with its function? Primase - removes RNA primers and replaces them with DNA Ligase - enhances separation of DNA strands Helicase - joins Okazaki fragments Single-strand binding proteins - synthesizes a short RNA sequence to initiate replication Topoisomerase - relieves torsional stress due to unwinding by the DNA

Step 1
Primase: Its function is to synthesize short RNA primers, not to remove them and replace them with DNA. So, this option is incorrect. Show more…

Which of the following enzymes is matched with its right statement? Select one: a. Helicase - reduces the tension caused by the unwinding of DNA during transcription b. DNA polymerase I - an enzyme responsible to synthesize the Okazaki fragments in the leading strand c. Topoisomerase - Prevents the closing of the DNA double strands during replication d. RNA polymerase - Creates the RNA primers required in replication e. Telomerase - Enzyme that prevents the shortening of the telomeres caused by replication in stem cells
