DNA double helix — structure?
Two antiparallel strands with base pairing.
DNA — structure?
Double helix, two antiparallel strands.
Replication fork — role?
Site where DNA unwinds for replication.
Nucleotide — components?
Phosphate, deoxyribose sugar, nitrogenous base.
RNA polymerase — function?
Synthesizes RNA from DNA template.
Complementary bases — pairs?
A pairs with T; C pairs with G.
Antiparallel strands — significance?
Allow proper enzymatic function during replication.
DNA replication fork — feature?
Y-shaped structure where DNA unwinds.
Helicase — role?
Unwinds DNA at the replication fork.
Leading vs lagging strand — difference?
Leading is continuous; lagging is discontinuous.
