After DNA replication, the parental DNA molecule contains two original DNA strands while the daughter molecule is composed of two newly synthesized strands.

At high temperatures the shape of the enzyme is altered so that it is no longer complementary to its specific substrate. This effect can be permanent and irreversible and is called denaturation
