Describe how DNA replication relates to transmission and conservation of genetic information.

DNA replication follows the base pairing rule (A with T and G with C). This ensures identical replication of the genetic information; hence it's conservation. Each daughter DNA double helix contains one old strand of DNA and one newly-synthesized strand of DNA. This is known as the semi-conservative mechanism.
DNA replication also occurs during mitosis which produces haploid gametes. Each parent contributes half of the genetic information during fertilization of two gametes, thus regenerating the diploid number. Genes from both parents are transmitted to the offspring.

DNA replication is a process in cells that occurs before the beginning of every cell division process.

  • DNA replication is regarded as the transmission of genetic information in that it ensures the production of another identical information same as the old and this is moved during cell division to a new daughter cell (result of the cell division process).

  • DNA replication also relates to conservation of genetic information in that due to the semi conservative nature of replication, the information passed is still intact and identical to the template strands information ensuring conservation.

DNA replication therefore guarantees that the right information is transmitted and remains conserved.
