Question

During the process shown above, the two strands of one DNA molecule are unwound. Then, DNA polymerases add complementary nucleotides to each strand which results in the formation of two identical DNA molecules.

Answer 1

Answer:

This question is incomplete as it lacks image, however, it can be answered based on the description. The complete part of the question is:

" This process is known as dna _______. A.) transcription B.) translation C.) cloning D.) replication

The answer is D. replication

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process whereby a DNA molecule is duplicated to form to identical copies of itself. The process of DNA replication is very pivotal and must occur prior to any cell division.

This process follows the semi-conservative model in which the double-stranded DNA molecule unwounds into two separate single strands. The single strands are then used as template for the synthesis of another complementary strands by DNA polymerase enzyme. At the end, the two DNA molecules are identical in base sequence.
