10 facts about DNA replication

"DNA" are you familiar with this word? Your answer will be yes, but are you know how dna is formed or means how dna replication takes place in a cell. Sthal and Meselson had conducted a experiment and shows that mode of DNA replication - semi conservative types. Let's know about 10 facts about DNA replication. 

DNA replication is self complementary and
it does not need a third party to complete it.
The two strand of DNA acts as a parents and work as dna templates to synthesis the daughters of DNA.

1. The first steps of DNA replication is unzipping. In this step, the hydrogen bonds between the two base pairs is broken down and divide the dna molecules into two strand.
2. Are you know? according to research, there are nearly 3 million dna bases in our genome, and during dna replication they all are replicate.
3. If we want to store these 3billions bases on a computer, it will take 3 gigabytes of storage space on a computer.
4. Do you know, DNA replication can takes place out side of animals bodies in labs also. By the PCR(polymerase chain reactions) we can do replicate.
5. DNA replication is slower in large animals and quite fast in smaller animals.
6. A large number of enzymes takes place in dna replication, a single dna can not handle this process.
7. Any changes in dna sequence during replication results in mutation. A mutation can lead to a new species.
8. Mutation can cause changes in dna bases only but it can be one or even more than one basis.
9. The mode of DNA replication is semi conservative types in which the two strand of dna acts as a templates and replicate these two molecules which is made up of one new & one old strand.
10. Replication takes place on fork as like structure "Y".
