A
Helicase
10
Q

A
By breaking hydrogen bonds.
13
Q
Replication
A
Semi conservative.
2 DNA strands come apart, each strand gets a partner.
Based on complimentary base pairing.
Helicase separates the two strands apart by breaking down hydrogen bonds.
DNA polymerase links nucleotides together forming new strand using originals as a template.
