Number of chromosome types - ✔️✔️23
Total chromosomes - ✔️✔️46
Interphase - ✔️✔️replicated chromosomes
M phase - ✔️✔️you can see the chromosomes

How do nucleotides polymerize? - ✔️✔️Phosphodiester linkage (bond)
-or-
Sugar-phosphate backbone
Polarity of nucleotides - ✔️✔️5' - 3'
G➝C - ✔️✔️3 H-bonds
A➝T - ✔️✔️2 H-bonds
Takes more heat to break bonds so this one is way more stable - ✔️✔️G➝C
Chargaff's Rule - ✔️✔️Number of purines (A,G) = Number of pyrimidines (C,T) in a DNA molecule
DNA Replication - ✔️✔️1.) DNA unzips
2.) 2 template strands
3.) new nucleotides
DNA Polymerase - ✔️✔️1.) works only in one direction 5'-3' of the strand its synthesizing
2.) needs a free 3' (OH)
Enzymes for Replication - ✔️✔️Helicase
Topoisomerase
, Primase
DNA Pol. III
DNA Pol. I
Ligase
Helicase - ✔️✔️breaks H+ bonds
Topoisomerase - ✔️✔️relieves tension
SSBP - ✔️✔️Keeps it single stranded
Primase - ✔️✔️synthesizes RNA primer
DNA Pol. III - ✔️✔️Synthesizes replicating strand of DNA 5'-3'
DNA Pol. I - ✔️✔️Removes RNA primer and replaces it with DNA
Ligase - ✔️✔️generates phosphodiaster bond
What would happen if Ligase was defective? - ✔️✔️The lagging strand synthesis would be
incomplete, leading strand synthesis would be largely unaffected.
Telomerase - ✔️✔️enzyme that prevents shortening
