Semi-conservative replication: This refers to the method in which each strand of the parental DNA serves as a template for new DNA to be synthesized, resulting in two new strands that each contain one old and one new strand.
DNA polymerase:An enzyme that synthesizes new strands of DNA, following the templates provided by the old strands during replication.
Replication fork: The point at which the double-stranded DNA molecule separates into two single strands that serve as templates for replication.
