What is the first step of replication?

The first, and potentially most important, step of DNA replication is unzipping the DNA through enzymes. This allows more nucleotides to be attached to the halves of the DNA, to create more.


What is a DNA replication machine?

The DNA replication machine is a collection of enzymes responsible for unzipping the DNA double helix, removing the hydrogen bonds between the bases, synthesizing the leading and lagging strain and then checking for errors.


Why is it necessary for DNA replication to occur in a great many separated areas at once as opposed to just unzipping a DNA from end to end to replicate it?

What term is used to describe the the process of copying DNA?

Replication is the term used to describe the process of copying DNA. Or perhaps transcription.


Where does DNA replication begin-?

The DNA replication machinery initially assembles and begins replication at the origin of replication. It contains high levels of AT base pairs for easier unzipping and there's usually one per bacteria chromosome, several for archaea chromosome, and many many more for eukaryotic linear chromosomes.
