What would happen during dna replication if dna polymerase was not functional?

The correct answer will be- new DNA strand will not be formed.

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process which forms the replica of the DNA using enzymes and complexes during the S-phase of the cell cycle.

The main enzymes which are involved in the process are- Helicase, Primase, DNA Polymerase and DNA ligase.

The DNA polymerase is the enzyme which creates the DNA molecules by adding nucleotide in the newly synthesized DNA strand. if it fails to work, no new nucleotides will be added hence, no new strand will be formed and DNA replication will stop.

Thus, the new DNA strand will not be formed is the correct answer.

hello which   of the following there is nothing!

lysosomes contain a variety of enzymes, enabling the cell to break down various biomolecules it engulfs, including peptides, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids (lysosomal lipase). the enzymes responsible for this hydrolysis require an acidic environment for optimal activity. hope i !
