DNA Helicase is: • An enzyme • Responsible for unwinding the double helix of the DNA molecule • Responsible for breaking the hydrogen bonds between the nitrogen base pairs. • Creates a replication fork so that parent strands can be read and used as templates to build complementary strands of new DNA molecule.
RNA Primase is: • An enzyme • Responsible for laying an RNA primer on unzipped strands • Responsible for laying the foundation of the complimentary strand • Builds new strand 5’-3’
DNA Polymerase is: • An Enzyme • Responsible for reading parent Helicase strand to build DNA Polymerase complimentary strand • Pairs A-T, G-C • Builds from 5’ to 3’ • Very Accurate, but not perfect
DNA Ligase is: • An enzyme • Responsible for removing RNA primers and putting in DNA bases • Fixes breaks in DNA strand • Builds 5’ to 3’

This is the “resting stage. ” Cells spend most of their time here. During this stage the cell is carrying out cell processes such as protein synthesis, photosynthesis, cellular respiration and more.
Prophase • DNA has been replicated • DNA is condensed in chromosome form • Nuclear membrane disintegrates • Spindle fibers are visible
Metaphase • Spindle making centrosomes are at poles • Spindles are attached to chromosomes • Chromosomes are lined up a central disc
Telophase • Spindles separate chromosome copies • Nuclear membrane begins to reform • Cleavage furrow separates cytoplasm and cell organelles
