Verified step by step guidance

Understand that DNA replication is a biological process that occurs in all living organisms and is the basis for biological inheritance.

Recognize that during DNA replication, the double-stranded DNA molecule unwinds and each strand serves as a template for the formation of a new complementary strand.

Identify that the enzyme responsible for catalyzing the synthesis of the new DNA strand is DNA polymerase, not RNA polymerase.

Acknowledge that errors can occur during DNA replication, but there are mechanisms in place to correct these errors, ensuring high fidelity in DNA replication.

Clarify that during DNA replication, both strands of the original DNA molecule act as templates, resulting in two identical DNA molecules, each composed of one original and one new strand.
