• DNA Transformation

A process in which DNA has the unique ability to make an exact copy of itself. (a)  

• Replication

• Translation

• Transcription

The picture below shows the steps of DNA replication beginning with step one and ending with step three.

​Because you are reusing the old, or parent, DNA strand DNA replication is said to be

• Semi- Conservative

• Semi-discontinuous

• Continuous

• Fully-Conserveative

• F

• G

• H

• J

The goal of DNA replication is

• to make proteins in the cell

• to divide cells

• to make an identical copy of DNA

• to fix mistakes in the DNA

Arrange the step in DNA replication in order
