DNA Replication
DNA replication is moderately complicated. As with any cellular process, it helps if we can build a "mental movie" of the process. This animation is designed to help build that movie, at least in a basic form. (In cells, it seems that the two DNA polymerase molecules are stuck together, with the DNA looped between them.)
