Concept:DNA replication is the process by which one
DNA molecule is copied to produce two identical
DNA molecules.
Explanation:The illustration shows the
DNA double helix unwinding and separating into its two strands.
Each separated strand serves as a template for building a new complementary strand.
This produces two identical
DNA molecules, each containing one original strand and one new strand.
This process occurs before cell division so that genetic information is passed on to daughter cells.
Protein synthesis is the formation of proteins from genes, and gene mutation is a change in the
DNA sequence, so neither is displayed in the illustration.
Answer:C.
DNA replication
