.

Question 3

Define Mitosis

Question 4

Question 5

What are the factors affecting life processes

Question 6

Explain why different types of cells differ in structure to fit their purpose?

Question 7

What is replication?

Answer 7

Replication is the process by which a double-stranded DNA molecule is copied to produce two identical DNA molecules. DNA replication is one of the most basic processes that occurs within a cell. Each time a cell divides, the two resulting daughter cells must contain exactly the same genetic information, or DNA, as the parent cell. To accomplish this, each strand of existing DNA acts as a template for replication.
