answer
DNA polymerase
- involved in the synthesis of DNA strand
- involved in replication
- Requires a primer to initiate replication
- Proof reading
- nucleotides are A, T, G and C
- low error rate
RNA polymerase
- Involved in RNA strand
- involved in transcription
- Does not require a primer
- acts only on the template strand of DNA
- no proof reading
- nucleotides are A, U, G and C
- high error rate
