The site where the old DNA strands separate and new DNA strands are synthesized is called the replication fork. This is where the enzyme DNA polymerase adds nucleotides to the growing DNA strand.
DNA ligase
Two strands of DNA are used to make complementary strands of DNA. One original strand serves as a template for the synthesis of a new strand, resulting in a double-stranded DNA molecule with base pairing between the original and newly synthesized strands.
Two strands of DNA are used to make complementary DNA during the process of DNA replication. This involves separating the two original DNA strands and using each as a template to build a new complementary strand.
The area where the duplicated strands join is called the "replication fork." This is where the DNA helicase unwinds the DNA double helix, creating two single strands that serve as templates for the synthesis of new DNA strands.
The site where the old DNA strands separate and new DNA strands are synthesized is called the replication fork. This is where the enzyme DNA polymerase adds nucleotides to the growing DNA strand.
Replication forks tend to unwind the DNA helix, separate the double strands, and synthesize new strands of DNA in opposite directions. They are formed during DNA replication and move along the DNA template strands as replication progresses.
DNA Polymerase III is responsible for adding new nucleotides to the strand being synthesised. Also involved in DNA replication are DNA Polymerase I which replaces primers with nucleotides, and DNA Ligase which joins fragments of DNA together.

Two new DNA chains are formed at the end of DNA replication, both identical in sequence to the template (or parent) chain. These chains are composed of 2 complimentary strands. It is important to note that of the newly formed DNA chains, one strand is the same as the template strand and the other one is a newly synthesized one.

DNA is made in the body through a process called DNA replication. This involves the separation of the two strands of DNA, followed by the synthesis of two new complementary strands using the existing strands as templates. The enzyme DNA polymerase plays a key role in catalyzing the formation of new DNA strands.
