Wilkens + Franklin
A
Determined the shape of DNA from X-rays
5
Q
Watson + Crick
A

6
Q
1st step of reconstruction
A
DNA is unzipped using HELICASE
7
Q
2nd step of reconstruction
A
Polymerase travels down 3’ to 5’, adds nucleotides, and bonds sugars and phosphates together
8
Q
3rd step of reconstruction
A
Okazaki fragments are bonded by ligase
9
Q
Helicase
A
Unzips DNA during replication
10
Q
DNA Polymerase
A
Adds nucleotides, bonds sugars and phosphates
11
Q
Lagging End
A
replicated in the 5’ to 3’ direction in discontinous chunks
12
Q
Leading End
A
replicated in the 3’ to 5’ direction continously
13
Q
