In insects, inspiration is called a passive process while expiration is called active process . Why ?

Assertion. DNA replication occurs throughout the cell cycle in all organisms. Reason. DNA replication is conservative.

The proof for semiconservative mode of DNA replication was First provided by Matthew Meselson and Franklin Stahl. Escherichia coli were the first organism to be used for this experiment and then it was done in with higher organisms such as plants and human cells. The process of DNA replication in terms of energy is a very expensive process. It involves the formation of a replication fork. Given below is a graph showing the percentage of Adenine in two different double stranded DNA. Helicase helps in:
