Question

during the process shown above, the two strands of one dna molecule are unwound. then, dna polymerases add complementary nucleotides to each strand which results in the formation of two identical dna molecules. this process is known as dna_____.
○a. replication
○b. transcription
○c. cloning
○d. translation

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process where the two strands of a DNA molecule unwind, and DNA polymerases add complementary nucleotides to each strand to form two identical DNA molecules. Transcription is the synthesis of RNA from a DNA template. Cloning is a broader process of creating genetically identical copies. Translation is the synthesis of proteins from mRNA.

Answer:

A. replication
