Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Once the DNA in a cell is replicated, the cell can divide into two cells, each of which has an identical copy of the original DNA.
Detailed explanation-3: -The new cell needs to have DNA exactly like the rest of your cells. Otherwise, that cell might malfunction. That’s why it’s important that the process of copying DNA, called DNA replication, is very accurate.
