First, the DNA strand is separated into single-stranded DNA molecules: G-C-T-G and C-G-A-T. Next, single nucleotides form hydrogen bonds with the corresponding nucleotides in each DNA strand and DNA polymerase links these nucleotides producing the second DNA strand that is complementary to the maternal strand. The process leads to the production of the two identical DNA molecules where half of each molecule consists of one maternal strand and one daughter strand.
