  1. Dec 18, 2015 · DNA replication is the process whereby a cell makes an identical copy of its DNA before cell division. It ensures faithful inheritance of genetic material during cell division. DNA replication is semi-conservative and bidirectional, occurring simultaneously on both strands of the DNA double helix to produce two identical copies.

  2. Mar 11, 2012 · DNA replication is the process by which a cell makes an identical copy of its DNA before cell division. It involves unwinding the DNA double helix at an origin of replication and using each strand as a template to synthesize new partner strands. RNA primers are used to initiate DNA synthesis, which occurs semi-conservatively and bidirectionally ...

  3. Nov 13, 2018 · DNA replication is the process by which DNA copies itself. It occurs during cell division and involves unwinding the DNA double helix, synthesizing new strands that are complementary to the original strands, and producing two identical DNA molecules each with one original and one new strand.

  4. The principal enzyme involved in DNA replication is called DNA polymerase. DNA polymerase is an enzyme that joins individual nucleotides to produce a new strand of DNA. DNA polymerase also...

  5. Steps of DNA Replication: The parental DNA molecule unwinds and unzips. Both parental strands serve as templates for new strands. Free nucleotides link to complementary bases on each...

  6. In eukaryotic cells, polymerases alpha, delta, and epsilon are the primary polymerases involved in DNA replication. Since replication proceeds in the 5' to 3' direction on the leading strand, the newly formed strand is continuous. The lagging strand begins replication by binding with multiple primers.
