Plant DNA replication

Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-021147

1. The process by which a DNA molecule is duplicated.

2. The use of existing DNA as a template for the synthesis of new DNA strands. In humans and other eukaryotes, replication occurs in the cell nucleus.

3. DNA replication is the process by which a molecule of DNA is duplicated. When a cell divides, it must first duplicate its genome so that each daughter cell winds up with a complete set of chromosomes.
