General knowledge

Science: DNA replication is the process by which DNA makes a copy of itself; a scientific result is accepted only if other scientists can replicate it.

विज्ञान में DNA replication वह प्रक्रिया है जिससे DNA अपनी प्रति बनाता है; कोई वैज्ञानिक परिणाम तभी मान्य होता है जब दूसरे वैज्ञानिक उसे दोहरा सकें।
