(D)adding nucleotides to the end of a DNA strand (E)reforming phosphodiester linkages

THIS IS THE BEST ANSWER 👇

Addition of nucleotides to the end of a DNA strand

Explanation:

Topoisomerases are enzymes that participate in the tights or are bound / induced or relaxed in double-stranded DNA. During DNA replication or transcription, the spin before the replication fork is generated so that these types of topo-isomerases are removed. For bacteria, topoisomerse is called gyrase.

Topoisomerases are very important for DNA replication and transcription.
