Question

The process of DNA replication is described. Identify the enzyme that participates in each part of the replication process. DNA partially unwinds as the hydrogen bonds between complementary bases are broken. This process is catalyzed by the enzyme

Answer 1

Helicase

Step-by-step explanation:

DNA replication is the process in which DNA makes copies of itself.

The process of DNA replication is supported by several enzymes.

The initial step of DNA replication is unwinding of double stranded DNA which is catalyzed by helicase enzyme. Helicase enzymes breaks the hydrogen bond between the DNA strands and prepare them for replication process.

Hence, the correct asnwer is "Helicase".
