    Amoeba Sisters Video Recap:: DNA Replication

    DNA must replicate before cells divide so that each new cell has a full copy of the original DNA. The key players in DNA replication include helicase, which unwinds the DNA double helix, DNA polymerase, which synthesizes new strands based on the existing strands, primase, which synthesizes RNA primers to start DNA synthesis, and ligase, which seals the fragments into a complete double helix. DNA replication involves unwinding the DNA double helix, synthesizing new strands complementary to each existing strand, and ligating the fragments to complete replication.

    Amoeba Sisters Video Recap: ​DNA Replication

    1. To understand DNA replication, we need to understand In the below DNA diagram, find and count…
    the “why.” ​Why​ does DNA need to replicate before cells
    divide? 2. Deoxyribose (sugar​). Total number in image? ​[ ]
    ​[ ] 3. Nitrogenous base​. Total number in image? ​[ ]
    4. Hydrogen bonds (between bases)​ Total number in
    image? ​[ ]

    3. DNA Replication has many key players! These are just a few of the major key player ​enzymes.​ In your own words,
    describe each of their functions in DNA replication.

    Helicase: ​[ ]

    DNA Polymerase: ​[ ]

    Primase: ​[ ]

    Ligase: ​[ ]
    Your turn to narrate! ​Narrate the illustrations below to explain the sequence of events occurring in DNA replication. Type in
    each box.
