The cell would not be a cell it would be dead. It also would not be able to replicate again because it has no instructions to do so.
through replication
To ensure that newly formed cells are genetically identical to the organisms original diploid cells otherwise they could be cancerous to the organism
Topoisomerase is the enzyme that unwinds the DNA during replication. It binds to the DNA, and separates the double strands and form a replication fork. After which the primer bind to the start site, and DNA polymerase starts DNA synthesis.
They have their own DNA.So they can self replicate.
It divides into two identical copies of itself.
Make lots of copies of the gene rapidly.
A computer worm is a type of malware. Its ability to replicate functional copies of itself is one of its characteristics. It does not require a host program to replicate due to its standalone characteristic.
Viruses do not have cells or any of the mechanisms to replicate any of their components. Because of this, the virus must hijack the mechanisms of a living cell in order to make copies of itself.
A characteristic of a DNA molecule that is not characteristic of a protein molecule is that the DNA molecule can replicate itself.
Yes
This process is known as DNA replication. DNA is a double-stranded molecule, and this serves to the cell's advantage. Using an enzyme, the cell splits the DNA strands apart, and new strands are copied onto the two parent strands to form two identical new strands. The process is much more complicated than that, but that's what happens.
The control centre of the cell. one of the main functions is the part it plays in reproduction. this is because all the information needed for a cell to replicate itself is carried in genes in the long strands of DNA called chromosomes
1. DNA copies itself everytime a cell divides, so that each new cell still has the full amount of DNA. 2. In order to copy itself, the DNA double helix (two strands joint together) unzips, to form 2 single strands 3. As the DNA unwinds itself, new nucleotides (floating about freely in the nucleus) join on only where the bases fit. (A with T and C with G). Making an exact copy of DNA on the other strand. 4. The result is 2 molecules of DNA identical to the original molecule of DNAb Good Luck!!
a virus is able to replicate itself bu taking over the metabolic activities of the cell it infects essentially saying stop what you are suppose to do and make copies of me. so the virus actually doesn't replicate itself but rather the cell in which it infects does it for it. this occurs during the lytic phase of the virus. sometimes the virus "hides" by incorporating itself within the dna of the cell it infects(causing certain cancers) until it is releases itself and says make me. this dormant phase is called lysogenic.
The cell would not be a cell it would be dead. It also would not be able to replicate again because it has no instructions to do so.
It's called - a Virus.
