Replication

Mitosis

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -DNA replication is the process by which DNA makes a copy of itself during cell division.
Detailed explanation-2: -DNA replication is the process by which the genome’s DNA is copied in cells. Before a cell divides, it must first copy (or replicate) its entire genome so that each resulting daughter cell ends up with its own complete genome.
Detailed explanation-3: -Replication occurs in three major steps: the opening of the double helix and separation of the DNA strands, the priming of the template strand, and the assembly of the new DNA segment. During separation, the two strands of the DNA double helix uncoil at a specific location called the origin.
