Question

a biology student outlines a process that occurs in all eukaryotic cells. 1. enzyme unzips double helix 2. base pairs separate 3. complementary bases bond with exposed bases 4. two identical molecules are produced what process is the biology student describing? dna replication protein synthesis transcription only translation only

Explanation:

DNA replication involves an enzyme (helicase) unzipping the double helix, base pairs separating, complementary bases bonding (with DNA polymerase), and two identical DNA molecules being produced. Protein synthesis involves transcription (DNA to mRNA) and translation (mRNA to protein). Transcription only produces mRNA from DNA. Translation only uses mRNA to make a polypeptide chain.

Answer:

DNA replication
