Cells
The process is called bidirectional replication. In this process, DNA polymerases synthesize new strands in opposite directions on each template strand.
Anti-parallel
The two strands of nucleotides in a DNA molecule run in opposite directions, referred to as antiparallel. This means that one strand runs in a 5' to 3' direction while the other runs in a 3' to 5' direction. This arrangement is essential for DNA replication and other cellular processes.
The opposite of adenine in terms of base pairing in DNA is thymine, as they form a complementary base pair. In RNA, the opposite of adenine is uracil, which also pairs with adenine.
Antiparallel
B DNA is the normal kind where it twists in what is called a right hand fashion. Z DNA is twisted in the opposite direction.

in a direction opposite to that of the replication fork
Anti-parallel
No, the two strands of DNA are not identical to each other. They are complementary and have opposite sequences of nucleotide bases.
In a regular watson-crick double helix base pairing DNA, guanine always pairs opposite cytosine. However this rule holds good only for double helical DNA, as, it is seen in tRNA that guanine (in the anticodon) pairs with cytosine as well as uracil of the corresponding codon in mRNA.

A TG CAGATTCTCTAAG
In DNA, A binds with T and C binds with G. Therefore the complementary strand for ATC-TCG would be TAG-AGC.
No, DNA replication does not take place in the same direction along both strands of the DNA. It occurs in opposite directions on the two strands, known as the leading and lagging strands.
