Answer:
Each strand in the double helix acts as a template for synthesis of a new, complementary strand. Enzymes unwind the DNA double helix, relieves the buildup of torque during unwinding, and lays down RNA primers.
Explanation:
Enzymes involved in DNA replication and what they do: Helicase (unwinds the DNA double helix) Gyrase (relieves the buildup of torque during unwinding) Primase (lays down RNA primers)New DNA is made by enzymes called DNA polymerases, which require a template and a primer (starter) and synthesize DNA in the 5' to 3' direction.
