Question

which is the function of dna polymerase? multiple choice 1 it is involved in assembly of the daughter strand using the parental strand as a template. it forms bonds between the parental strand and the daughter strand. it unwinds and breaks dna into two separate strands.

Explanation:

DNA polymerase's core function in DNA replication is synthesizing new daughter strands by adding nucleotides complementary to the parental template strand. The first option describes this role. The second option is incorrect (ligase forms bonds between fragments, not polymerase between parent and daughter strands). The third option is incorrect (helicase unwinds DNA strands).

Answer:

A. It is involved in assembly of the daughter strand using the parental strand as a template.
