Why is DNA copying an essential part of the process of reproduction?

 

Answer:

  • DNA is the genetic material of a cell. 
  • The copying of DNA refers to forming a similar DNA as that of the parent cell so that the copies could be transferred into the daughter cells
  • This ensures that the offspring produced are similar to the parent.
  • The offspring will not be identical to parent,
