Front

What are the building blocks of DNA called?

Back

Molecular bases (nucleotides)

Front

In which phase of the cell cycle does DNA replication occur?

Back

S phase (Synthesis phase)

Front

What is the complementary DNA strand for AATCATGGA?

Back

TTAGTACCT

Front

What are the four main bases found in DNA?

Back

Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, Guanine

Front

What is the role of DNA polymerase in DNA replication?

Back

DNA polymerase synthesizes new DNA strands by adding nucleotides complementary to the template strand.

Front

What is the structure of DNA?

Back

DNA is a double helix composed of two strands of nucleotides.

Front

What is the significance of the S phase in the cell cycle?

Back

The S phase is crucial for DNA replication, ensuring that each daughter cell receives an identical set of chromosomes.

Front

What is the difference between a purine and a pyrimidine?

Back

Purines (Adenine and Guanine) have a double-ring structure, while pyrimidines (Cytosine and Thymine) have a single-ring structure.
