Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which enzyme is responsible for unwinding the DNA double helix during replication? (2021)
  • Step 1: Understand that DNA is structured as a double helix, which means it has two strands twisted around each other.
  • Step 2: Know that during DNA replication, these two strands need to be separated so that they can be copied.
  • Step 3: Identify the enzyme that performs this separation. This enzyme is called helicase.
  • Step 4: Conclude that helicase unwinds the DNA double helix during the replication process.
