During DNA replication, which enzyme unwinds ("unzips") the parental DNA double helix at the replication fork?

In DNA replication, what is the primary function of DNA polymerase?

In an overview of DNA replication, what is the main goal of DNA replication in a cell?

In DNA replication, what is the primary role of DNA ligase?

During DNA replication, which enzyme initiates DNA synthesis by creating a short RNA segment (primer) that provides a free $3\prime OH$ group for DNA polymerase?

During DNA replication, what stabilizes the unwound single-stranded DNA to prevent it from reannealing or forming secondary structures?
