No. All strands can be replicated, just depends on where the enzymne decides to land and unzip it. Anyways, all DNA molecules would be adequate templates since they are all identical copies of each other.
both strands will serve as a template. the dna molecule will unzip and a matching side is assembled onto each strand.
only one side is used during transcription to make RNA
false
Lagging strand
DNA replication requires the opening of the 'zipped up' DNA strand. This is so a 'new' strand of DNA can be inserted and have a template strand to 'read' off. DNA polymerase analyses the bases on the template strand and adds each complementary base to synthesise the 'new' strand. In order for DNA polymerase to be able to do this the DNA has to be opened up by helicase to reveal the bases of the template strand. The unzipping of the DNA by helicase forms the replication fork. Thus the function of the replication fork is to reveal template strands for DNA replication to actually occur.
They cannot serve as a template for replication

During interphase.
The DNA double helix unwinds, & the two separated strands each serve as a template for a complementary strand to be synthesised

semiconservative replication - original DNA double strand will unwind into 2 strands, so one original strand will serve as a template for synthesizing a new complementary strand , thus forming a new DNA (one with old strand and one with a new strand)
which statement about dna replication is correct? A. the leading strand is one of the strands of parnetal Dna b. the leading strand is built continuously, and the lagging strand is built in pieces c. the lagging strand is one of the strands of parental Dna d. Dna ligase helps assemble the leading strand e. the lagging strand is built continuously
I'm not an expert on this subject but as I've learned, DNA is split into two replication forks where the complimentary base pairs and other backbones are added on, so ideally it would be 50% of the original strand in each daughter strand.

During transcription the DNA double helix is separated into two individual strands. Each strand may serve as a template for RNA polymerase, which travels along the DNA structure in a 3' to 5' direction. As it progresses down the strand, RNA polymerase synthesizes a pre-messenger RNA strand that is complementary to the sequence on the DNA template. For example if the DNA sequence on the template was 5' ATACA 3', then the pre mRNA sequence synthesized would be 3' UAUGU 5'. (Remember, RNA synthesis utilizes the nucleotide uracil instead of thyamine).
During interphase.
Immediately after replication (S phase of a cell), the cell enters G2 phase and then the M phase (division of the cell). During division, specifically anaphase, the 2 pieces of DNA (chromatics) are separated from one another.
