Reduplication

Introduction Reduplication is the process by which DNA or RNA is copied and duplicated during cell division. This process is one of the main biosynthetic mechanisms and it also plays an important role in genetic variation and heredity.

**Characteristics of reduplication** Reduplication of DNA or RNA occurs in several stages: replicas



Reduplication plays a critical role in nature and living organisms, as it is an important mechanism by which DNA or other molecules encoding genetic information can be copied and passed on to subsequent generations. Reduplication occurs on the basis of already existing code and is used to correct errors in the DNA molecule.

Reduplication is an important tool in the variation of organisms, as well as in the transmission of genetic changes from parents to offspring. For example, chromosomes in cell nuclei divide mitotically into two daughter cells, but this all happens only after reduplication has occurred.

In microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses, genetic information is passed on to other cells by reduplicating the code contained in the virus or bacterium. Therefore, infection almost always begins with the reduplication of genes, which are then transmitted from an infected cell to a healthy cell. Thus, the introduction and replication of these genes are important steps in the development of diseases.
