1. Helicase
2. Okazaki fragments
3. DNA polymerase III
4. DNA ligase
5. Primase
6. Single-strand binding proteins
7. Topoisomerase
8. 1. DNA helicase unwinds DNA
2. Replication fork is formed
3. RNA primase attaches to the primer
4. DNA polymerase attaches to the primer
5. DNA polymerase replicates in the 5' to 3' direction
6. Fragments of copied DNA created on the lagging strand
7. DNA fragments are joined together by ligase
8. The strand that is copied in a continuous way, from the 5' to 3' direction
9. Stabilizes the DNA strands during replication
10. Enzyme that unzips DNA
9. Replication is called "semiconservative" because each new DNA molecule consists of one original (parental) strand and one newly synthesized strand.
