DNA reproduces through a set process that begins when it unzips and uncoils. Next, two polynucleotide chains are produced and adenine lines up with thymine. Cytosine lines up with guanine, and then hydrogen bonds form between the pairs. Enzymes join the nucleotides together, and two new DNA molecules are formed.

What is genetic engineering in animals?
GE is removing DNA from selected animals then adding new genes (which posses different traits) into the DNA itself before implanting the cell into the host
What impact did the discovery of DNA as a genetic material have on the early science community?
At first, Clark and Watson were not noticed for their work. It was not until the fundamentals such as how DNA duplicated itself, and how it created the essential proteins needed to keep us alive.
Can bacteria undergo recombination?
Generally speaking, no. Bacteria reproduce asexually, via a process known as binary fission, in which two identical daughter cells results from the splitting of a parent cell. However, bacteria do have ways of modifying their DNA through various methods. See link below.
A change in the genetic material of a cell is called?
Cancer- certain mutations (changes) in a cell's genetic material may cause that cell to reproduce with out control.
How is the genetic material in a bacterial cell carried?
Bacteria are prokaryotes, which means that they do not have a nucleus (unlike eukaryotes, which do). Instead, their genetic material is contained freely in the cytoplasm of the cell; it is not bound inside a membrane.
What is it called when a DNA molecule reproduce itself?
DNA replication
What is the process when DNA reproduce itself?
Dna don't reproduce they actually go through two processes transcription and translation these two processes can be easily found in diagrams, in books or after an internet search
Can viruses be grown in a lab on synthetic material yes or no?
Nope.Viruses can't reproduce by themselves, they have to inject their DNA into a living cell where it inserts itself into the hosts DNA to be...........................
How do giardia limblia reproduce?
They reproduce asexually.
Where does a virus replicate itself?
Viruses do not reproduce since they are not alive but they hijack the host's DNA to make more viruses.
Why cant a virus replicate its own DNA?
Because they don't have the metabolism or apparatus to do so. They lack ribossomes, rough endoplasmatic reticulum, a cell... They must infect a cell that has a means to reproduce itself in order to reproduce.
Is it you or your DNA that reproduces?
You reproduce, but your DNA replicates. DNA is constantly being copied in your cells - when cells divide, the new cells contain DNA which was synthesized in the original cell. When you reproduce, it is your DNA (genes) which you pass on to your offspring. Without DNA, you would not be able to reproduce. One half of your chromosomes (23 chromosomes) are contained in the gamete (sex cell) that you provide for sexual reproduction. These chromosomes are passed on to your offspring when you reproduce.
Which is capable of reproducing itself?
some sponges reproduce by itself. also worms and invertebrates
Do monerans have DNA?
yes monerans have DNA. they couldn't reproduce without it
What word inject DNA or RNA into the nucleus of a cell to reproduce?
DNA or RNA
What organisms can reproduce asexually from spores?
its DNA
What is the function of the chromation?
to help reproduce DNA
