Q

What are the steps in DNA replication?

A
  1. DNA polymerase binds to and uncoils and unzips the strands
  2. DNA polymerase begin adding complementary bases to form new strand of DNA
  3. After a triplet is completed, DNA polymerase will shift down and copy the next triplet
  4. This repeats on both strands until each strand is replicated forming 2 identical copies of the original strand
