The two parental strands reassociate after acting as templates for new strands, thus restoring the parental double helix. Semiconservative model. The two strands of the parental molecule separate, and each functions as a template for synthesis of a new, comple- mentary strand. Dispersive model. Each strand of both daughter mol- ecules contains a mixture of old and newly synthesized DNA. Parent cell First replication Second replication DNA replication is semiconservative (a) (b) (c)

14. Copyright © 2005 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings In DNA replication – The parent molecule unwinds, and two new daughter strands are built based on base- pairing rules (a) The parent molecule has two complementary strands of DNA. Each base is paired by hydrogen bonding with its specific partner, A with T and G with C. (b) The first step in replication is separation of the two DNA strands. (c) Each parental strand now serves as a template that determines the order of nucleotides along a new, complementary strand. (d) The nucleotides are connected to form the sugar-phosphate backbones of the new strands. Each “daughter” DNA molecule consists of one parental strand and one new strand.
