What is DNA replication?

Back

The process by which a cell makes an identical copy of its DNA, resulting in two DNA strands, each with a complete set of identical base pairs.

Front

What happens if an error occurs during DNA replication?

Back

Errors can lead to abnormal cells, which may result in tumors, or some errors may have no practical impact.

Front

What is the outcome of DNA replication?

Back

Back

A tumor is an abnormal mass of tissue that forms when cells grow and divide uncontrollably.

Front

What is the function of ribosomes in a cell?

Back

Ribosomes are responsible for protein synthesis in the cell.

Front

What is the significance of the cell cycle?

Back

The cell cycle is the series of events that lead to cell division and replication, ensuring proper growth and development.
