| Front | Describe DNA replication. |
|---|---|
| Back | - DNA helicase breaks H bonds, unwinding helix - Each DNA strand used as a template for a new strand - Free DNA nucleotides align with complementary base, form H bonds - adenine forms 2 H bonds with thymine, cytosine forms 3 H bonds with guanine - DNA polymerase forms phosphodiester bonds between nucleotides - by condensation reactions - forms sugar-phosphate backbone - continues along DNA molecule |
