Following the initiation of DNA replication, the first step is the synthesis of a short RNA primer.
RNA primer complementary to a preexisting DNA strand
to add complementary nucleotide respect to the old strand for new strand synthesis.....
DNA polymerase
With a small piece of primer,and active polymerase(enzyme) it replicates the complementary strand of the DNA
It means when the DNA is unzipped into two strands each strand serves as a template for the synthesis of another new strand. So, when the strands come back together in the double helix one strand is an old strand and one is a new strand with you now have double the DNA you started with; four strands in all.
Synthesis phase or "S phase" occurs during the interphase of a cell cycle between the G1 and G2 stages. During synthesis phase, DNA molecules "unzip" and each old strand attracts free nucleotides forming complementary new strands, leaving two strands of DNA identical to the original strand of DNA.
DNA polymerase cannot begin the synthesis of new DNA.To synthesis a new strand of DNA ,RNA primer is required.The complementary RNA nucleotides,that are added opposite to the single strand of parent DNA are the RNA primer.

DNA polymerase
I believe it's called replication. not really sure though...
With a small piece of primer,and active polymerase(enzyme) it replicates the complementary strand of the DNA
The replication is semiconservative. Each strand acts as a template for the synthesis of a new DNA molecule by the sequential addition of complementary base pairs, thereby generating a new DNA strand that is the complementary sequence to the parental DNA. Each daughter DNA molecule ends up with one of the original strands and one newly synthesized strand.

When a new DNA is formed , two strands of old DNA open and act as a template for synthesis of two new strands of DNA .Sequence of bases in new strand of DNA is determined by old strand and it is based on complementarity i.e. A pairs with T and G Pairs with C .
Synthesis phase or "S phase" occurs during the interphase of a cell cycle between the G1 and G2 stages. During synthesis phase, DNA molecules "unzip" and each old strand attracts free nucleotides forming complementary new strands, leaving two strands of DNA identical to the original strand of DNA.
It is a copy of the Dna original strand.
