Replication in Eukaryotes : Key Enzyme, Initiation, Elongation, Termination, DNA Polymerase
Before any living cell divides, it needs to make a copy of its genetic material. This process is called DNA replication, and it makes sure each new cell gets a full and exact set of genetic instructions. For complex organisms like animals, plants, fungi, and protists (which are called eukaryotes), DNA copying is very structured and carefully controlled. That's because their genetic information, or genome, is huge, laid out in lines, and wrapped around special proteins called histones. ☰ Table of Contents − What is DNA Replication?
