Term
| DNA OR DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID |
|
Definition
| DNA is composed of four different subunits, adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine. Contains two nucleotide strands. hydrogen bonds hold the two dna strands together at the double helix. |

Term
|
Definition
| Enzymes that break about the parental DNA double helix so that the bases of the two parental DNA strands no longer form base pairs with one another |
|

Term
|
Definition
| Ligase enymes bond together the sugar phosphate backbones of these fragments of DNA until each daughter strand consists of one long, conitnues DNA polymer. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Enzymes that move along each seperated DNA strand, matching ease base on the strand with free nucleotides that have a complementary base. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Produces two identical doubles helices, each one with an original strand and one new strand. |
