Actually, it should hold the zone(s) used to support AD, and AD integrated
with secured updates enabled is recommended. It may also either hold a
secondary copy of the zones on Bind, use that Bind as a Forwarder, or both
in order to resolve the zone(s) that are primary on that Bind.
Assuming the zones on that Bind are properly registered and delegated
with/by their parent, then neither of these are needed. It could use a
different DNS as a Forwarder, or none and just use
root hints.

Think of the path the query takes, the so-called resolution path. Is there
an available answer to the query from a DNS server along that path ? It
you use your Bind as a forwarder, then internet
access via name may be slowed to the speed of the Bind acting as a
forwarder, and if you disable use of root hints on the Windows DNS then all
outside access is fully dependent on the quality of you Bind.
