- Below is a picture that depicts transcription. Shown is the DNA double helix, the replication bubble, RNA polymerase, and the growing RNA molecule. The ends of each nucleic acid are indicated by the labels I-VI. Which labels correspond to 3' ends? I II DNA V OI and III OI, IV, and V O II, III, and VI OV and VI O I, III, V, and VII RNA VI RNA polymerase III IVarrow_forwardArrange the steps of DNA replication in the order that they occur. First step Helicase unwinds the DNA double helix. Last step Answer Bank DNA polymerase synthesizes DNA. RNA primers are added. DNA ligase joins DNA fragments together. RNA primers are removed. Single-stranded DNA-binding proteins bind to each template strand.arrow_forwardX DNA polymerase I is responsible for removes the RNA primer. ending replication. catalyzes the new H bond in the replicated strand. starting replication. helps to proofread the new strand.arrow_forward
- During semi-conservative DNA replication, which step must occur first? The hydrogen bonds found between the nitrogenous bases must be broken. RNA must be transcribed. New plasmids must be synthesized. The phosphodiester bonds between the nucleotides must be broken.arrow_forwardRNA-dependent RNA polymerase performs which of the following functions? O 1) Uncoats the viral genome 2) transcribes retroviral RNA genomes into DNA 3) Replicates RNA into RNA O 4) Replicates DNA into RNA 5) Shuttles RNA genomes into the nucleus for assemblyarrow_forwardUsing the illustration of DNA replication given below label the following:arrow_forward
- What is the first line of defense among all the various DNA repair processes? cleavage of glycosidic bonds ligation of synthesized strands proofreading DNA synthesis using DNA polymerase excision of wrong basesarrow_forwardDNA transcription refers to? RNA synthesis DNA repair DNA duplication Protein synthesis DNA denaturationarrow_forwardWhich best describes DNA polymerase? Group of answer choices an enzyme that removes the sugar molecule from a nucleotide so that the phosphate groups can be linked together an enzyme involved in DNA replication that binds to DNA and facilitates the formation of a new strand of DNA an enzyme that allows the chromosomes to coil around proteins so that the chromosomes can fit into the nucleus an enzyme that deletes specific regions of DNA an enzyme that breaks DNA down into fragmentsarrow_forward
