DNA replication occurs to ensure that genetic information is accurately passed on to daughter cells during cell division. It is essential for maintaining the integrity of the organism’s genome, allowing cells to divide and grow. Without replication, cells would not be able to properly divide, leading to potential loss of genetic information, mutations, and failure of cellular functions. DNA replication is thus a critical process for life, ensuring continuity and stability across generations of cells.
