The DNA is a double-helix, two strands of nucleotides that are required to pair up in a particular way: adenine to thymine, and guanine to cytosine. During replication, this pairing code is kept perfectly, ensuring that each copy is identical.

When a chromosome has made a copy of itself each of the two strands is called this?

When a chromosome has made a copy of itself, each of the two strands is called a sister chromatid. Sister chromatids are identical copies formed during DNA replication and are joined at the centromere.


Who are copies of DNA made and need a picture of it to?

DNA is copied in a process called DNA replication. During DNA replication, the two strands of the DNA molecule separate. Then free DNA nucleotides pair with their complimentary nucleotides according to the base-pairing rule on each of the old strands of DNA. Once the process is complete, the result is two identical DNA molecules, each with one old strand of DNA and one new strand of DNA. Refer to the related link for an illustration.


What are complimentary way DNA's nitrogen bases bond together allow the molecule to make an identical copy If a mistake is made in the replication of DNA it is called a?

DNA's nitrogen bases bond together through hydrogen bonding, with adenine pairing with thymine and cytosine pairing with guanine. This complementary base pairing allows DNA to make an identical copy during replication. A mistake in the replication process is called a mutation.


What are the two DNA molecules made after DNA replication called?

The two double helix molecules that result after replication are known as "a Pair of Daughter Strands"; each residing comfortably within it's own 'daughter Cell' nucleus.


Difference between DNA replication and transcription?

1. Replication is the duplication of two-strands of DNA. Transcription is the formation of single, identical RNA from the two-stranded DNA. 2. There are different proteins involved in replication and transcription. 3. In replication, the end result is two daughter cells, while in transcription, the end result is a protein molecule. 4. In transcription, DNA serves as the template for RNA synthesis.

If you compare the original DNA to the two copies that are made after replication occurs what would you find?

Unless mutation occur the two copies of DNA that are made after replication are identical to its original form. Thus continuous replication of DNA in the chromosomes does not alter its nature.


Are sister chromatids identical?

they're identical because they are the product of replication.

How commercial gratings are made?

Commercial surface-relief gratings are produced using an epoxy casting process called replication; in essence, this process involves pouring a liquid into a mold, allowing the liquid to harden, and then removing the hardened material from the mold without damaging either. The replication process yields optically identical copies of the original grating, called the master grating.


What is the DIFFERENCE between replication and repetition?

The difference between between replication and replication is that replication is the series of copies, and repetition is the series of repeats.

What happens at a DNA replication for during replication?

The hydrogen bonds that hold the two DNA strands together are broken. This creates two prongs and each are made up of a single strand of DNA that creates two new partners for the two strands (because they add nucleotides).
