Short fragments on the lagging strand

Q2) This is one of five questions that requires you to match the following component of the replisome (uppercase text below) with the best definition

Origin of replication

Short fragments on the lagging strand

Q3) This is one of five questions that requires you to match the following component of the replisome (uppercase text below) with the best definition

DNA ligase

Short fragments on the lagging strand

Q4) This is one of five questions that requires you to match the following component of the replisome (uppercase text below) with the best definition

Helicase

Near an A/T rich region on the chromosome

Explanation / Answer

Q1) This is one of five questions that requires you to match the following component of the replisome (uppercase text below) with the best definition

DNA polymerase I
The answer is Removes RNA primer

As DNa polymerase I has 5'>3' exonuclease activity, it removes the RNA primer from the DNA strands and fills that gap with dNTPS.

Q2) This is one of five questions that requires you to match the following component of the replisome (uppercase text below) with the best definition

Origin of replication
The answer is Near an A/T rich region on the chromosome

Q3) This is one of five questions that requires you to match the following component of the replisome (uppercase text below) with the best definition

DNA ligase
The answer is Repairs gap in sugar phosphate backbone

After DNA pol I removes the primer, it fills that gap with dNTPs, the DNA ligase seals the gap between the last dNTP and already synthesized DNA fragment.

Q4) This is one of five questions that requires you to match the following component of the replisome (uppercase text below) with the best definition

Helicase
The answer is Unwinds double stranded DNA
