How is dna copied?
a. the antisense strand of dna is used as a template to create both strands of the new double helix.
b. the sense strand of dna is used as a template to create both strands of the new double helix.
c. the mrna made from the dna is used as a template to create a complementary strand of dna.
d. each single strand of dna is used as a template to create a complementary strand of dna.

DNA replication is the process by which DNA makes a copy of itself during cell division.

the sense strand if DNA is used as a template to create both strands of the new double helix

Explanation:

Ok, the DNA is "copied" in the tanscription process. The transcription is the process by which the information in a strand of DNA is copied into a new molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA). Also, the DNA safely stores genetic material.

During the process of transcription a single strand of RNA is synthesized using a double stranded DNA molecule as a template.  The two strands of the DNA molecule are separated from one another, exposing the nitrogenous bases. Only one strand is actively used as a template in the transcription process, this is known as the sense strand, or template strand. The complementary DNA strand, the one that is not used, is called the nonsense or antisense strand.

the types of mutations include: missense mutation: this type of mutation is a change in one dna base pair that results in the substitution of one amino acid for another in the protein made by a gene. nonsense mutation: a nonsense mutation is also a change in one dna base pair.
