Generation

DNA replication is the process where a cell copies its entire genome before dividing. The double helix unwinds, and each strand serves as a template for building a new complementary strand—DNA polymerase enzymes read the existing strands and add matching nucleotides (A pairs with T, G pairs with C). This results in two identical DNA molecules, each containing one original strand and one newly synthesized strand, a pattern called semi-conservative replication. The process is remarkably accurate thanks to proofreading mechanisms, though occasional errors do occur and can lead to mutations.
