What links nucleotide bases together?
Phosphodiester bond

Double helix of DNA structure is held together by
Noncovalent interactions (hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic interactions)

Number of hydrogen bonds between AT
2

Number of hydrogen bonds between CG

Semiconservative charactaristic of eukaryotic DNA replication
Each daughter cell contains 1 parent strand and 1 newstrand

Bidirectional characteristic of eukaryotic DNA replication
Starts at several points, replication "bubble" is formed (Bidirectional with multiple origins)

DNA polymerases cannot synthesize new DNA without
Short stretches of RNA

RNA primase makes
Small stretches of RNA

DNA polymerases elongate DNA chain by addition of
Base pairs to the 3' end

New DNA is always synthesized in what direction?
5' - 3'

Parental strand is read in what direction?
3' - 5'
