DNA and DNA replication

Front

What are the building blocks of DNA?

Back

Nucleotides are the building blocks of DNA.

Front

What pairs with adenine in DNA?

Back

Thymine pairs with adenine in DNA.

Front

What is the sugar found in DNA?

Back

The sugar in DNA is deoxyribose.

Front

What forms the backbone of the DNA structure?

Back

The backbone of DNA is formed by deoxyribose sugar and phosphate.

Front

What is the base pairing rule in DNA?

Back

Adenine pairs with Thymine, and Cytosine pairs with Guanine.

Front

What is the structure of DNA?

Back

DNA has a double helix structure.

Front

What is the role of DNA polymerase?

Back

DNA polymerase is an enzyme that synthesizes new DNA strands during replication.

Front

What is semi-conservative replication?

Back

Semi-conservative replication is the process where each new DNA molecule consists of one original strand and one new strand.

Front

What is the function of helicase in DNA replication?

Back

Helicase unwinds the DNA double helix during replication.

Front

What are the four nitrogenous bases in DNA?

Back

The four nitrogenous bases in DNA are Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine.
