DNA polymerase is an enzyme that synthesizes DNA molecules from deoxyribonucleotides, the building blocks of DNA. These enzymes are essential for DNA replication and usually work in pairs to create two identical DNA strands from a single original DNA molecule. During this process, DNA polymerase "reads" the existing DNA strands to create two new strands that match the existing ones.

Answer:
DNA replication allows the cells to behave correctly so that mutations such as cancers do not spread throughout the body. The disadvantage of replication is that a lot of storage is needed to keep DNA information for replication.
