Answer 1

Answer:

Replication is called semiconservative because half of the original strand is inherited.

Explanation:

In the semiconservative replication type, half of the original DNA or one strand of the double helix, is conserved in the daughter strand, while the other half is conserved in the second daughter strand. Therefore, at the end of replication two DNA double-stranded helix, are obtained, containing each one, 50% of the original DNA and 50% of the new one.
