DNA is replicated whenever a cell needs to divide. This happens at many times during an organism's lifetime. All cells are replicating during embryo development and most are still replicating during a juvenile period of growth. In adults, some tissues need to grow continuously. In humans for example, skin and epithelial cells that line the intestinal tract are constantly being shed and replaced. Other cells only grow when there is damage to be repaired. A few cell types such as neurons, stop replicating in adults forever as far as we know (although there are a few hints that this may not be completely true).

Is DNA used in DNA replication?
It's safe to assume that DNA is used in DNA replication. One double stranded Dna 'fiber' is replicated into two IDENTICAL double stranded Dna 'fibers'.
What 2 proteins are used during DNA replication?
The two proteins used during DNA replication are DNA polymerase and DNA helicase. DNA polymerase adds nucleotides to the growing DNA strand, while DNA helicase unwinds the double helix structure of DNA to expose the template strands for replication.
Is it DNA Copying or DNA Replication?
replication
What is used to make a new complementary strand of DNA?
The process of DNA replication.
During DNA replication what?
DNA replication produces two copies of the DNA.
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.
DNA is copied during a process called?
Replication.
Is DNA used in DNA replication?
It's safe to assume that DNA is used in DNA replication. One double stranded Dna 'fiber' is replicated into two IDENTICAL double stranded Dna 'fibers'.
What are the areas on DNA where replication occurs called?
DNA replication begins in areas of DNA molecules are called origins of replication.
What 2 proteins are used during DNA replication?
The two proteins used during DNA replication are DNA polymerase and DNA helicase. DNA polymerase adds nucleotides to the growing DNA strand, while DNA helicase unwinds the double helix structure of DNA to expose the template strands for replication.
Which is the main enzyme used for the replication of DNA in ecoli?
DNA polymerase
Is it DNA Copying or DNA Replication?
replication
Inhibitors of DNA replication?
Inhibitors of DNA replication are bacteria or toxins that inhibit the replication of DNA. E-Coli is an example of an inhibitor of DNA replication.
What is used to make a new complementary strand of DNA?
The process of DNA replication.
Enzyme used to position nucleotides during DNA replication?
DNA polymerase
During DNA replication what?
DNA replication produces two copies of the DNA.
What is it called when a cell duplicates its DNA?
DNA replication
