Understand that DNA replication is a biological process by which a cell duplicates its DNA, ensuring that each new cell receives an exact copy of the DNA.
Identify the three main steps of DNA replication: Initiation, Elongation, and Termination.
Initiation: This is the first step where the DNA double helix is unwound by helicase enzymes, creating a replication fork. Proteins bind to the origin of replication to start the process.
Elongation: During this step, DNA polymerase enzymes add nucleotides to the growing DNA strand in a 5' to 3' direction, using the original strand as a template.
Termination: This final step occurs when the replication process is complete, and the replication machinery disassembles. The newly synthesized DNA strands are proofread and corrected for any errors.
