Explanation / Answer

DNA replication is semi-conservative : During DNA replication one strand is derived from the original DNA and the other strand is newly synthesized. DNA replication is bidirectional : Replication proceeds from the origin of replication in both directions simultaneously. Replication fork : Place in which the two strands of DNA are being unwound and replicated. Leading Strand :  The side of the DNA double helix that is synthesized continuously. Lagging Strand: The side of the DNA helix that is synthesized using Okazaki fragments. DNA is antiparallel: The two chains in the double helix are oriented in opposite directions. DNA is complementary : In the paired chains of the DNA helix adenine always binds thymine, and guanine always binds cytosine.
