Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The central enzyme involved is DNA polymerase, which catalyzes the joining of deoxyribonucleoside 5′-triphosphates (dNTPs) to form the growing DNA chain. However, DNA replication is much more complex than a single enzymatic reaction.
Detailed explanation-2: -DNA polymerases are enzymes that create DNA molecules by assembling nucleotides, the building blocks of DNA. These enzymes are essential to DNA replication and usually work in pairs to create two identical DNA strands from one original DNA molecule.
Detailed explanation-3: -At least three DNA polymerases are required for eukaryotic genome replication: DNA polymerase alpha (Pol ), DNA polymerase delta (Pol
