Dna Profiling
Find out more about Dna ProfilingDna Replication And Cell Division
Richard Waller

DNA replication basically means creating two entire DNA strands for each daughter cell in place of the single parent cell. Prior to the cell division, its DNA within the nucleus is released by an enzyme to break the hydrogen bonds between the bases, resulting in two halves of the DNA. The uninhibited nucleotides within the nucleus bonds with the bases of both strands. Bonds with T alone while C with G, leading to exact matches for both strands.
There are four phases in cell division, or mitosis (normal cell division, meiosis forms sex cells).
Prophase: Pairing of chromosomes occurs and following replication, the parent cell has two complete sets. Two poles are formed as the nucleus disappears.[ Read Article ]
