semi conservative
DNA replication is ___________, meaning that each new duplex has one original (parent) strand
and one new strand.
template
Because the two parent strands are separated during replication and the base pairing is
predictable, each parent strand can serve as a ____________for the new strand synthesis.
helicase
unwinds the double stranded DNA to allow for replication, but this is not a problem for the DNA
polymerase.
Nucleotide excision repair
_______________is used to repair deletions, insertions, and helix-distorting lesions, such as
thymine dimers.
complementary strand
a strand of DNA that is the exact match of another
complementary sequence
Nucleic acid base sequences that can form a double-stranded structure by matching base pairs.

How many DNA copies after 4 complete PCR cycles?
DNA polymerase
This recognizes the primers and uses the available dNTPS to replicate the template DNA
sequence.
nonsense mutation
missense mutation
frameshift mutation
silent mutation
