Question

a→t t→a c→g g→c
what is enzymes job in dna replication? helicase:
primase:
dna polymerase:
ligase:
fill in the diagram of dna replication
use the base pairing rules above to replicate the dna, writing the pairing base in the box below
leading strand
original dna 1 a g c a t c g c c t a a t c t a
new dna 1
lagging strand
original dna 2 t c g t a g t t g g a t t a g a t

Explanation:

Step1: Recall base - pairing rules

A pairs with T, and C pairs with G.

Step2: Replicate Leading Strand

For the Leading Strand with original DNA 1 sequence AGCATCGCCTAATCTA, the new DNA 1 sequence is TCGTAGCGGATTAGATA.

Step3: Replicate Lagging Strand

For the Lagging Strand with original DNA 2 sequence TCGTAGTGGATTTAGAT, the new DNA 2 sequence is AGCATCACCTAAATCTA.

Answer:

Leading Strand - New DNA 1: TCGTAGCGGATTAGATA
Lagging Strand - New DNA 2: AGCATCACCTAAATCTA
