Genetic Code

Question 8 • [HSBIO] Biology, Sem 1 (26-27)

Which best describes the outcome of DNA replication?

Answer
A
The new DNA molecule is identical to the original DNA.
B
The new DNA molecule is synthesized from amino acids.
C
The new DNA molecule has a different number of codons.
D
The new DNA molecule is single-stranded.

Explanation

During DNA replication, each original strand serves as a template, and complementary nucleotides pair with it: A with T and C with G. This produces a new double-stranded DNA molecule with the same genetic sequence as the original; DNA is made from nucleotides, not amino acids.
