match the enzymes to their role in the dna replication process.
joins the okazaki fragments together
creates nicks ahead of the replication fork to relieve tension from unwinding
synthesizes rna primer at the initiation point
synthesizes the complementary daughter strands
unwinds the dna molecule
topoisomerase
rna primase
ligase
helicase
polymerase
Brief Explanations
- Topoisomerase: Creates nicks ahead of the replication fork to relieve tension from unwinding.
- RNA primase: Synthesizes RNA primer at the initiation point.
- Ligase: Joins the Okazaki fragments together.
- Helicase: Unwinds the DNA molecule.
- Polymerase: Synthesizes the complementary daughter strands.
