As DNA replication begins, enzymes separate the double stranded DNA molecule into two single strands, separating the nitrogen base pairs. What happens next? A. Each single strand of DNA serves as a template to create the new complimentary strand. Following base pair rules, free nucleotides within the cell are joined to each side of the separated DNA strands.
B. Messenger RNA provides the information necessary to join free nucleotides within the cell to the two separated DNA strands.
C. Free nucleotides within the cell are joined to the separated DNA strands in a random order increasing genetic variation in the species.
D. tranfer RNA molecules, with specific anticodons that are complimentary to the codons found in the original DNA strand, bond the correct free nucleotides in the correct order to separated DNA strands.
