What is DNA polymerase?
a.An enzyme that carries out DNA replication
b.Short, single strand of DNA that base-pairs with a specific DNA sequence
c.An enzyme that corrects mutations that arise during the replication of DNA
d.An enzyme that seals any gaps that remain between bases of replicating strands of DNA
Your lab partner tells you proteins are used to make enzymes, you say, no enzymes are used to make proteins. Who is right? Explain your answer. – realize that enzymes are proteins and that the enzyme polymerase is used to transcribe DNA
