Outcome of DNA replication is best describes by new DNA molecule consists of one new strand and one old strand of DNA.
Explanation:
- Both DNA and RNA are capable of undergoing self-replication.
- There are three possible mechanisms of the replication of double stranded DNA, namely (i) conservative (ii) dispersive, and (iii) semi-conservative.
- In semi-conservative method, the two strands would separate from one another, maintain their integrity and each will synthesize its complimentary strand.
- The result would be, that the newly synthesized molecule would carry or conserve one of the two strands from the parent molecule and the other strand would be newly assembled.

Amongst the following statements the statement which best describes the ‘replication of DNA’ is that the new DNA consist of one strand of new DNA and one strand of old DNA.
Explanation:
- The ‘replication’ is a process in which the DNA forms a copy of itself.
- The ‘DNA replication’ is considered as a semi conservative model in which one strand forms as a template and the new strand is synthesised based on it.
