DNA replication occurs during interphase, with DNA polymerase synthesizing complementary strands (A-T, C-G), and telomeres protect the DNA ends.
DNA replication occurs during cell interphase, catalyzed and proofread by DNA polymerase, copying each strand complementarily (A-T, C-G), with telomeres protecting the DNA ends.

| Back | - during cell interphase - DNA polymerase catalyzes and proofreads new DNA - each strand is copied complementarily ATCG = TAGC - telomeres protect ends of DNA from getting lost |
