How does DNA replicate? Choose the 3 steps.

• 1st, it unwinds and unzips.

• Finally, Elves weave new bases onto the old DNA.

• Then, new bases match up to the parent strands.

• Next, the two single stands act as a template for the new strand to be created.

Why is DNA replication and example of semi-conservative replication?

• Each new stand of DNA has all new material.

• The DNA happens to just duplicate each base pair.

• Part of the original DNA is used to create each of the new DNA strands.

• The phosphate groups are no longer attached to the 5 carbon sugar or the leg bone.

• a phosphate group

• a base
