- The following diagrams represent DNA molecules that are undergoing replication. Draw in the strands of newly synthesized DNA and identify (a) the polarity of the newly synthesized strands, (b) the leading and lagging strands, (c) Okazaki fragments, and (d) RNA primers.arrow_forwardThe diagram shows a model of DNA replication. The diagram points out a number of enzymes and protein factors involved in the process. If this cell were cancerous, a doctor might be using a chemotherapy drug to prevent the replication process from taking place. One such drug, topotecan, inhibits the topoisomerase enzyme from working. Based on the model, if topotecan is used, how will this affect the replication process? A: The hydrogen bonds between the bases will not break B: The double helix of the DNA molecule will not unwind C: It will prevent the addition if complementary nitrogen bases to the leading or lagging DNA strands D: It will prevent the addition of nitrogen bases due to instability of the single-stranded DNA chainsarrow_forwardWhat is the function of Ligase during DNA Replication a Releases tension on the DNA as it unwinds b Puts down RNA primers so replication can continue c Binds Okazaki Fragments into a continuous DNA strand d Binds to single stranded DNA to protect it from degradationarrow_forward

Adds up new complementary nucleotide sequence at the 3’ to 5’ direction of the DNA template. c. Unwinds the double helix by breaking the bonds at the 3’ to 5’ polymerization activity. d.It transiently cuts each strand to prevent supercoil at the 5’ to 3’ polymerization activity complementary to the RNA strandarrow_forward
