- Q1What is the process called when DNA makes an identical copy of itself?DNA mutationDNA replicationDNA translationDNA transcription30s
- Q2Which enzyme is responsible for copying DNA during replication?RNA polymeraseDNA polymeraseDNA helicaseDNA ligase30s
- Q3What is the purpose of DNA replication?To repair damaged DNA.To produce proteins for the cell.To create new DNA molecules with unique genetic information.To ensure the accurate transmission of genetic information to daughter cells.30s
- Q4Which enzyme is responsible for separating the DNA strands during replication?DNA helicaseRNA polymeraseDNA ligaseDNA polymerase30s
- Q5What is the first step in DNA replication?Binding of DNA polymeraseUnwinding of the DNA double helixSeparation of the DNA strandsSynthesis of new DNA strands30s
- Q6What is the role of DNA ligase in DNA replication?To separate the DNA strandsTo join Okazaki fragments on the lagging strandTo add new nucleotides to the growing strandTo unwind the DNA double helix30s
- Q7What is the role of DNA polymerase in DNA replication?To add new nucleotides to the growing DNA strandTo separate the DNA strandsTo unwind the DNA double helixTo repair damaged DNA30s
- Q8Which direction is DNA synthesized on the lagging strand during DNA replication?5' to 3'Randomly3' to 5'Both 5' to 3' and 3' to 5'30s
- Q9What is the lagging strand in DNA replication?The strand that contains the majority of DNA damageThe strand that is synthesized discontinuously in the opposite direction of the replication forkThe strand that is synthesized continuously in the same direction as the replication forkThe strand that is responsible for the initial unzipping of DNA30s
- Q10What are Okazaki fragments?Short DNA fragments synthesized on the lagging strand during DNA replicationIncomplete DNA fragments found in the nucleus of cellsLong DNA fragments synthesized on the leading strand during DNA replicationDifferent types of proteins involved in DNA repairLarge molecules that make up the structure of DNA30s
