    The correct answer is option B, DNA replication passes on traits from parents to offspring.

    Reason -

    DNA replication is essential to carry genetic traits from parents to the new offsprings. There are two strands in each parental DNA which gets separate and they then serve as template for the synthesis of new daughter strand by using complementary base pairing. This is known as semiconservative replication as the one strand of parental DNA is conserved
