**Instruction for Model Creation: Complementary Base-Pairing in DNA Replication**

1. **Objective**: Draw and label a model demonstrating how complementary base-pairing is used to create a new strand of DNA during cellular DNA replication.

2. **Components to Include**:
   - **Template Strand**: The original strand of DNA that serves as a guide for the synthesis of the new strand.
   - **New Strand**: The newly synthesized DNA strand that is complementary to the template strand.
   - **Base Pairs**: Illustrate the pairing between adenine (A) with thymine (T), and cytosine (C) with guanine (G).
   - **DNA Polymerase**: The enzyme responsible for adding new nucleotides to the growing DNA strand.

3. **Explanation of DNA Replication**:
   - The DNA double helix unwinds, resulting in two template strands.
   - DNA polymerase reads the template strand and adds complementary nucleotides to form the new strand.
   - Base pairing ensures the accuracy of DNA replication by matching A with T and C with G.

**Use this model as a foundational guide to understand the molecular process of DNA replication in cells.**
