What enzyne is repsonsible for adding the complementary base pairs during replication?
Explain
A. DNA polymerase
B. RNA polymerase
C. DNA ligase
D. RNA ligase
A. DNA polymerase
DNA polymerase is the enzyme responsible for adding the complementary base pairs during replication. It is able to read the existing DNA strand and add new nucleotides that are complementary to the nucleotides on the original template strand. This results in the formation of two identical DNA molecules, each containing one original strand and one newly synthesized strand. DNA polymerase ensures that the new DNA strands are accurately synthesized by proofreading the nucleotides it adds and fixing any errors that may occur.
