    DNA replication

    Explanation:

    Anabolism is the process by which the body makes use of the energy that is released by catabolism to synthesize complex molecules. These complex molecules are then used to form cellular structures that are derived from small and simple precursors that serve as building blocks.

    DNA synthesis is a complicated process that involves anabolic processes to form the purine and pyrimidine nucleotide triphosphates which is necessary for replication, unwinding of the template DNA which provides access to the replication machinery.

    Answer: Option A) DNA replication

    Explanation:

    The term anabolism refers to any constructive metabolic process in which complex molecules such as nucleic acids are synthesized from simpler ones such as nucleotides, and it consumes rather than produce cellular energy.

    Hence, unlike other options which describe breakdown of complex molecules, DNA replication involves the synthesis of nucleic acids (DNA or RNA) from simple repeating units of nucleotides complimentary to the parent strand.

    Thus, DNA replication is an example of anabolism.
