replication of DNA

The process that occurs during the rest period (interphase) at the outset of mitosis and meiosis by which a DNA molecule is duplicated or copied. One DNA molecule becomes two identical ones. This is accomplished by the DNA molecule unwinding and unzipping along its base pairs so that both sides can be copied by free nucleotides. Replication is triggered by an enzyme.
