There is no single enzyme responsible for DNA duplication. But the most important ones are:
Helicase: it unwinds the DNA helix
RNA polymerase: adds the RNA primer
DNA polymerase: adds the complementary strand of DNA
Ligase: attaches the DNA fragments together

What separates DNA strands when DNA copies itself?
Topoisomerase is the enzyme that unwinds the DNA during replication. It binds to the DNA, and separates the double strands and form a replication fork. After which the primer bind to the start site, and DNA polymerase starts DNA synthesis.
The process by which a DNA molecule copies itself is called?
A nice simple answer for you: Replication.
During transcription what molecule opens the DNA?
Helicase is what will "unzip" the DNA.
How do the new copies of DNA compare to the original DNA?
DNA replicates using the process called semiconservative replication. An original DNA molecule is complementary to the replicated molecule, which means that they are identical copies of each other.
What molecule copies the DNA coding strand and leaves the nucleus?
mRNA copies the information.Process is called transcription.
Which enzyme copies DNA strands?
ligase
What separates in DNA when it copies itself?
The enzyme
What enzyme is used to join DNA nucleotides?
In DNA replication, DNA polymerase III is the enzyme which joins the DNA nucleotides together via phospodiester bonds.DNA Ligase is the enzyme that seals gaps in DNA during DNA Replication.DNA Ligase is the enzyme that seals gaps in DNA during DNA Replication.
When DNA copies itself what is this process called?
DNA Replication :)
The process by which DNA copies itself is called?
DNA replication
What separates DNA strands when DNA copies itself?

What is the enzyme that controls the synthesis of new strands of DNA called?
DNA polymerase
What enzyme transcribes DNA?
The enzyme that transcribes the DNA into RNA is called RNA polymerase.
What enzyme called is added to attach the DNA backbone between vector and foreign DNA?
DNA ligase
The enzyme that catalyzes DNA synthesis add nucleotides to the DNA molecule is called?
Primase
An enzyme that cuts double-stranded DNA at specific nucleotide sequences?
Such an enzyme is called a restriction endonuclease
What enzyme glues the DNA together after replication?
Question is unclear . If you mean pieces of DNA , thae enzyme is DNA ligase which joins pieces of DNA called Okazaki fragments together .
