Answer:

Several generations

Explanation:

For a completely new species to branch out of its predecessor, a series of germline mutations are needed. Each mutation is spontaneous , random, directionless and depends on individual and environmental factors. Only favourable mutations (purely on luck) pave the way to speciation.

Thus, speciation is not a single generation phenomenon. It takes several generations to fully manifest. The phenomenon of mutation being a random event makes speciation an ever longer procedure.

Then after that DNA form Y like structure having complementary base pairs. Two strands are formed ; leading strand and lagging strands. They complementary base pairs allow the formation of new strands with help of primer. So new strand is then a copy of gene or called replicated strand.
