Solution

The correct option is B Semi-conservative
DNA replication is the process of duplication of the template strand of the DNA. It is the basis for biological inheritance. DNA is made up of two strands and each strand of the original DNA molecule serves as a template for the production of the complementary strand, a process referred to as semi-conservative replication.
So, the correct answer is option C.
