the reason why cells must be able to both transcribe and replicate their dna is : B. replication creates new DNA while transcription creates mRNA

if cells could only transcribe genetic information into protein, they would lose it's core value. If they could only replicate the dna, they will have no medium to create the actual information

hope this helps
