Final answer:
The statement is false; during DNA replication, a new strand is created complementary to the parental template, not new nucleotides pairing with the daughter strand's nucleotides. The correct option is B.
Step-by-step explanation:
When DNA replication begins, new nucleotides are not created to pair up with the daughter strand's nucleotides, because the new strand is not the parent DNA strand, but rather is a new complementary strand that is synthesized based on the parent template strand.
This is a false statement. In DNA replication, each of the original strands serves as a template for the creation of a new, complementary strand. Once replication is complete, each DNA molecule consists of one parental strand and one newly-formed daughter strand, a process known as semiconservative replication.
Therefore, each daughter DNA molecule has one old (parental) strand and one new strand, preserving the original DNA sequence and ensuring accurate transmission of genetic information to the daughter cells.
