Question

Which enzyme is paired incorrectly with its function? which enzyme is paired incorrectly with its function? helicase: untwists double helix single-strand binding proteins: unpair dna strands and prevent re-pairing topoisomerase: joins sugar-phosphate backbones of okazaki fragments primase: synthesizes an rna primer dna polymerase: catalyzes synthesis of new dna?

Answer 1

a) DNA polymerase – catalyze the addition of dNTPs to a new DNA strand b) DNA ligase – produce RNA primers for Okazaki fragment formation DNA primase – produce RNA primer as a starting point for DNA synthesis DNA helicase – unwind DNA helix to separate strands x Telomerase – catalyze lengthening of telomeres in germ cells
