DNA replication is called semiconservative because

the two resulting DNA molecules each have one new DNA strand and one old strand from the original DNA molecule.

both of the resulting DNA molecules are composed of new strands of nucleotides.

no extra nucleotides are incorporated into the replicated DNA molecules.

one of the two resulting DNA molecules is new.

Respuesta :

DNA replication is called semiconservative because the two resulting DNA molecules each have one new DNA strand and one old strand from the original DNA molecule.

The study of genes and inheritance is called genetics. There are two types of genetic material and these are DNA and RNA.

The correct answer to the question is option A that is the two resulting DNA molecules each have one new DNA strand and one old strand from the original DNA molecule.

What is DNA?

DNA stands for deoxyribose nucleic acid. It stores all the genetic information transferred from the old generation to the next generation.

The semi conservation of the DNA is stated that the DNA formed in the replication has the new DNA and the one strand of old DNA.

Hence, the correct answer is option A.
