Why does DNA make an exact copy of itself?

Answer 1

It is important so that you don't get a mutuation in the DNA.

Answer 2

DNA is often called the blue print of an individual's life. It has the make-up of what every trait and characteristic inside and outside of the body will be. It is important for DNA to replicate itself in order to reproduce. Everyone has genes that were passed down from their parents. Each parent gives exactly one copy of their genes to each child they have. Every new cell needs a copy of DNA, so it is the DNA's job to replicate itself and pass on a copy to an organism.

Answer 3

It is important that the DNA is copied exactly during replication because any errors in replication can cause mutations. For example, even one incorrect base can result in an enzyme becoming inactive. These mutations can be lethal or have severe consequences on the organism's health.

Answer 4

DNA makes an exact copy of itself through a process called DNA replication. This process involves unwinding the double helix, separating the two strands, and using each strand as a template to build a new complementary strand. This ensures that each new cell receives an identical copy of the genetic information during cell division.

Answer 5

Yes, if the DNA fails to make an exact copy while replicating it is a mutation, which is deadly a majority of the time.

Answer 6

yes cause it causes aids
