Question

What materials does dna polymerase require in order to synthesize a complete strand of dna? select all that apply. select all that apply. inorganic phosphate 3'-oh end of the new dna strand all four deoxyribonucleotides triphosphates (containing a, c, t, or g) single-stranded dna template atp?

Answer 1

Answer: inorganic phosphate 3'-oh end of the new DNA strand;
all four deoxyribonucleotides triphosphates (containing a, c, t, or g) ;
single-stranded dna template

DNA polymerase will add free nucleotides only to the 3' end of the new strand but only if there is a pre-existing 3'-OH group.
The enzyme DNA polymerase will form hydrogen bonds with the nucleotides of the template DNA and add new nucleotides, adenine will bond with thymine and guanine will bond with cytosine.
The replication process has produced a new DNA molecule by using the original strand as a template and the new strand formed which is identical
