Question

label the diagram: rna primer helicase 3 5 topoisomerase lagging strand leading strand dna ligase 3 single strand binding protein okazaki fragment dna polymerase dna primase 5

Explanation:

The helicase unwinds the DNA double - helix. The single - strand binding proteins keep the strands separated. The leading strand is synthesized continuously in the 5' to 3' direction by DNA polymerase. The lagging strand is synthesized in Okazaki fragments. DNA primase synthesizes RNA primers. DNA ligase joins the Okazaki fragments. Topoisomerase relieves the supercoiling tension.

Answer:

From left to right (top row first): Single Strand Binding Protein, DNA primase, Leading Strand, DNA polymerase, Okazaki Fragment, Lagging Strand, DNA ligase
