PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Explanation: The only false statement is that DNA replication of the lagging strand is continuous. The leading strand features continuous replication while the lagging stand is initially made up of discontinuous Okazaki fragments, which are sealed later by ligase.

Detailed explanation-2: -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. DNA replication is an essential process and the basic mechanism is conserved in all organisms.

Detailed explanation-3: -Which is true about DNA replication? It is semiconservative.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.
