  2. Guanine Cytosine Leading strand Thymine Adenine Guanine Cytosine Thymine Adenine Guanine Cytosine Adenine Thymine Adenine Thymine Guanine Cytosine Lagging strand Guanine Cytosine

  3. Guanine Cytosine Leading strand Adenine Thymine In this stage of the replication DNA helicase “unzips” the DNA preparing it for replication. Guanine Cytosine Adenine Thymine Guanine Cytosine Thymine Adenine Adenine Thymine Guanine Cytosine Lagging strand Guanine Cytosine

  4. Thymine Guanine Cytosine Lagging strand Leading strand Thymine Adenine DNA is separated and is beginning to become 2 separate DNA strands. Guanine Cytosine Guanine Cytosine Adenine Thymine Thymine Thymine Guanine Cytosine Thymine Guanine Adenine Adenine Adenine Cytosine

  5. Thymine Guanine Cytosine Lagging strand Leading strand Thymine Adenine Here the second strand of the duplicated DNA is created and creates identical DNA as the first strand. Guanine Cytosine Guanine Cytosine Guanine Adenine Cytosine Thymine Thymine Thymine Adenine Thymine Guanine Adenine Cytosine Adenine Cytosine Thymine Guanine Guanine Adenine Cytosine Adenine Adenine Thymine Thymine Cytosine Adenine Guanine Thymine

  6. Guanine Cytosine Guanine Cytosine Leading Strand Lagging strand Thymine Adenine Thymine Adenine The final stage 2 identical DNA strands are created from the first strand. Guanine Guanine Cytosine Cytosine Thymine Thymine Adenine Adenine Guanine Guanine Cytosine Cytosine Adenine Adenine Thymine Thymine Adenine Adenine Thymine Thymine Guanine Guanine Cytosine Cytosine Guanine Guanine Cytosine Cytosine

  7. Importance of DNA replication • DNA replication is important for all living things for growth and development. DNA replication copies the DNA and duplicates it for new cells. This somewhat acts like a copy and paste. When the new cells are created they need genes from DNA to function correctly. DNA is made up of 2 strands, the leading strand which holds all of your information, continually repeats itself to duplicate genes and DNA. The leading strand also goes '5 to '3. While the lagging strand pieces together chunks of information. The lagging strands replication is more complicated than the leading strand. For DNA to replicate itself it requires 5 enzymes. Those enzymes are, Polymerase, Ligase, Primase, Helicase, and Topoisomerase. This is how DNA is replicated and why it is important for all organisms to grow and develop.
