3 types of replication

• What is conservative replication in DNA replication?

  The original DNA remains unchanged, new copy made
• How does dispersive replication differ from conservative replication?

  Dispersive replication mixes original and new DNA
• What is the key feature of dispersive replication?

  Sections of DNA are copied and spliced together
• What happens during semi-conservative replication?

  Each new molecule has one original and one new chain
• What occurs to the polynucleotide chains in semi-conservative replication?

  The chains part and new nucleotides attach
• What are the three types of DNA replication mechanisms?

  • Conservative replication
  • Dispersive replication
  • Semi-conservative replication
