______ replication of dna indicates that newly replicated strands of dna contain one old parent strand and one new daughter strand.
○ complementary
○ redundant
○ anti - parallel
○ homologous
○ semi - conservative

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Complementary: Refers to base - pairing (A - T, G - C), not DNA replication type.
• Redundant: Not related to DNA replication structure.
• Anti - parallel: Describes DNA strand orientation (5’ - 3’ and 3’ - 5’), not replication type.
• Homologous: Related to similar chromosomes in meiosis, not DNA replication.
• Semi - conservative: DNA replication where each new DNA molecule has one old (parent) and one new (daughter) strand. This matches the description.

Answer:

E. Semi - conservative
