Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
DNA is copied during a process called ____
A
replication.
B
translation.
C
transcription.
D
transformation
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Replication is the process by which a double-stranded DNA molecule is copied to produce two identical DNA molecules. DNA replication is one of the most basic processes that occurs within a cell.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cells must replicate their DNA before they can divide. This ensures that each daughter cell gets a copy of the genome, and therefore, successful inheritance of genetic traits.

Detailed explanation-4: -1. What is DNA replication? Explanation: Each DNA strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new strand, producing two new DNA molecules, each with one new strand and one old strand.
