The term 'daughter' is mostly used in molecular/cell Biology to refer to mitosis/meiosis processes/components. In organic chemistry it would refer to the molecules that are produced from a reaction that breaks down a large molecule to yield smaller (although still relatively big) molecules. A good example could be the breaking of a polysaccharide in the middle of the polymer, yielding two smaller (although still quite big) oligosaccharides :)

How does DNA molecules differ from daughter DNA molecules?

DNA molecules contain genetic information in a double-stranded helical structure, while daughter DNA molecules are formed during DNA replication and consist of two identical copies of the original DNA molecule. Daughter DNA molecules are produced through a semi-conservative process where one strand of the original DNA molecule is conserved in each daughter molecule.


How many molecules would there be after four DNA molecules unzip and replicate?

When four DNA molecules unzip and replicate, each original molecule produces two new strands, resulting in a total of eight molecules. Specifically, each of the four original DNA molecules yields two identical daughter molecules, leading to 4 original + 4 new = 8 DNA molecules in total.


What are the two DNA molecules made after DNA replication called?

The two double helix molecules that result after replication are known as "a Pair of Daughter Strands"; each residing comfortably within it's own 'daughter Cell' nucleus.


In the conservative model for replication of DNA progeny DNA molecules consist of?

In the conservative model of DNA replication, the parental DNA molecule remains intact and serves as a template for the synthesis of a completely new daughter DNA molecule. The resulting progeny DNA molecules, therefore, consist of one entirely old parental strand and one entirely new daughter strand.


After replication 2 identical molecules of?

After replication, two identical molecules of DNA are produced, each containing one original strand and one newly synthesized complementary strand. This process ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete copy of the genetic material.

When DNA is duplicated during mitosis?

When DNA is duplicated during mitosis, the cell undergoes a process called DNA replication where the DNA molecule creates an exact copy of itself. This ensures that each daughter cell receives a complete set of genetic information. The duplicated DNA molecules are then separated into the daughter cells during cell division.

Why is replication called 'semi-conservative'?

DNA replication is said to be 'semi-conservative' because the two new daughter DNA molecules are "Half old" and "Half new". Half the original DNA molecule is saved, or conserved in the daughter molecules.
