1
Q
Process of semi-conservative replication
A
DNA helicase breaks H bonds between bases
Double helix splits into 2 strands and unwinds
Polynucleotide acts as a template and forms H bonds with complementary free nucleotides
Nucleotides bonded together via condensation reaction using enzyme DNA polymerase
2 Double helixes of DNA are formed
