Question # 1

What is Semi-Conservative Model of DNA Replication?

  • Ans 1: In semi conservative replication,the two strands of the duplex separates out each acting as a model or mold,along which new nucleotides are arranged thus giving rise to two new duplexes.In this process,by separation of two strands,primary structure has been conserved, whereas the secondary structure has been disrupted.

Question # 1

Differentiate between semi conservative replication and conservative replication.
