What is the process by which DNA is copied to produce an identical molecule? (2020)
  • Step 1: The DNA double helix unwinds and separates into two strands.
  • Step 2: Each original strand serves as a template for creating a new complementary strand.
  • Step 3: Enzymes called DNA polymerases add nucleotides to the growing new strands, matching them with the original strands.
  • Step 4: The result is two identical DNA molecules, each with one original strand and one new strand.
