Semiconservative DNA replication means that
A. each daughter DNA molecule is composed of one original strand and one new strand.
B. the sequence of a DNA molecule is preserved as it is being replicated.
C. each strand of a double-stranded DNA molecule is replicated differently.
D. the cell can proofread its newly synthesized DNA only part of the time.
E. nucleotides are constantly being recycled as cells make DNA.

Respuesta :

Semiconservative DNA replication means that each daughter DNA molecule is composed of one original strand and one new strand (Option A).  It describes the mechanism of DNA replication.

In semiconservative DNA replication, both DNA strands separate and serve as templates to create new complementary DNA strands.

In consequence, each daughter cell has a molecule of DNA composed of an 'old' DNA template strand and a newly synthesized DNA strand.

The semi-conservative nature of DNA Replication was discovered by Meselson and Stahl.
