Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The correct answer is (D) RNA primase makes the RNA primer, while DNA Pol epsilon extends that primer with DNA. DNA polymerase epsilon is the enzyme that synthesizes new strands of DNA during replication.
Detailed explanation-2: -S phase is the period during which DNA replication occurs.
Detailed explanation-3: -Replication occurs in three major steps: the opening of the double helix and separation of the DNA strands, the priming of the template strand, and the assembly of the new DNA segment.
Detailed explanation-4: -1. What is DNA replication? Explanation: Each DNA strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new strand, producing two new DNA molecules, each with one new strand and one old strand.
