DNA replication is semi-conservative, this statement means that Question 6 options: a) the new DNA molecules that are made are not identical to the original DNA molecule. b) the new DNA molecules that are made are only partially DNA since RNA primers are included. c) the new DNA molecules that are made are composed of one strand of the old DNA molecule and one strand of new DNA. d) of the two new DNA molecules made, one is entirely new DNA and one is entirely old new. e) the new DNA molecules that are made have a mixture of old and new DNA in each strand of the DNA duplex, randomly interspersed.

DNA replication is the process by which double-stranded DNA is duplicated. The replication of DNA is bidirectional and semiconservative. As the replication occurs in both directions, it is bidirectional, which reduces the time required to replicate an entire chromosome. It's also semiconservative because the resulting DNA molecule is made up of a template strand (the original strand) and a newly synthesised strand.
