Document Summary
Textbook reference: chapter 12 in biology how life works (2nd ed. ) The process of duplicating a dna molecule is called dna replication. It occurs in the same way in all organisms which reflects evolution. Duplication of dna molecule =dna replication(s phase) Virtually the same process in all organisms: In all dividing cells, a double-stranded dna molecule results in 2 double stranded daughter dna molecules, identical to each other except for rare mutations: dna replication"s importance: - how cells and organiss produce offspring. After replication, each new dna duplex will consist of one strand that was originally present in the parental duplex and one newly synthesized strand. An alternative model is the conservative replication which proposes that the original dna duplex remains intact and he daughter dna duplex is completely new. Each antipaaralel strand is complementary to the. Strands of dna, each forming a template for. The order of bases on one strand is used to add.
