the process is called semi-conservative because it's half old and half new
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)
During DNA replication, the template strand is used as a guide to create a complementary copy, while the coding strand is not directly involved in the copying process. The template strand determines the sequence of nucleotides in the new DNA strand, while the coding strand has the same sequence as the RNA transcript that will be produced from the new DNA strand.
After DNA replication, each new molecule has one strand of the original DNA molecule and the other strand is composed of new nucleic acids. This is due to the semi-conservative replication of DNA.
The enzyme responsible for extending the new DNA strand by adding nucleotides is DNA polymerase. It reads the template strand and adds complementary nucleotides to form a new DNA strand. DNA polymerase can only add nucleotides in the 5' to 3' direction.
DNA polymerase catalyzes the reactions that are responsible for synthesizing new DNA strands in the 5' to 3' direction. The parent DNA strand is read in the 3' to 5' direction but the daughter strand is extended in the opposite direction.

It is a copy of the Dna original strand.

DNA polymerase is the enzyme responsible for producing a new DNA strand during DNA replication. It catalyzes the addition of nucleotides to the growing DNA chain, using the existing DNA strand as a template.
GGATCGA. Each base in the original DNA strand pairs with its complementary base (A with T and C with G) in the new strand during DNA replication.
DNA replication is semi-conservative. This means that each new DNA molecule has one original strand of DNA and one new strand of DNA.
DNA polymerase catalyzes the reactions that are responsible for synthesizing new DNA strands in the 5' to 3' direction. The parent DNA strand is read in the 3' to 5' direction but the daughter strand is extended in the opposite direction.
When DNA splits, two new strands of DNA are formed through a process called DNA replication. Each new strand is complementary to the original strand, resulting in two identical copies of the DNA molecule.
The DNA strand that acts as a pattern for the newly synthesized DNA is called the template strand. It serves as a guide during DNA replication, where complementary nucleotides are added to create a new DNA strand.
