It is composed of elastic fibers in an otherwise thin homogenous layer.asal membrane, a sheet of tissue that forms the outer layer of the choroid and lies just under the pigmented layer of the retina.

There are several enzymes that 'unzip' DNA. These enzymes are collectively known as DNA helicases. DNA helicases are helix-destabilizing enzymes that bind to DNA at the origin of replication and break hydrogen bonds, thereby separating the two strands.. Solomon, Eldra P., Linda R. Berg, and Diana W. Martin. Biology. 8th ed. Belmont, CA: Thomson Brooks/Cole, 2008.
DNA Polymerase. Just as helicase is responsible for unwinding the DNA strand, DNA polymerase is responsible for replicating the strand once it unwinds and separates. DNA is made up of a sugar-phosphate ladder and a nucleotide base.s the DNA strand separates, the DNA polymerase matches nucleotide bases that are missing when the strand separates. Most DNA polymerase also has the ability to correct errors in the strand. As there is more than one type of helicase, there is also more than one type of polymerase.
