Question

Before a cell can divide, it must copy one ___ at a time in a process called DNA replication

Answer 1

Before a cell can divide, it must copy one NUCLEOTIDE at a time in a process called DNA replication.

DNA replication is the process by which two identical DNA molecules are formed from one single, original DNA parent molecule. DNA replication takes place in all living organisms and is the basis for inheritance. During this process, the DNA make a copy of itself by copying all the nucleotide that are present in it.

Answer 2

Nucleotide
nucleotides (or bases) make up DNA and they are copied so that when cells divide, their daughter cells have the exact same DNA
