  6. (replication) rejoinder: a quick reply to a question or remark (especially a witty or critical one); "it brought a sharp rejoinder from the teacher"
  7. (Replication (computer science)) Replication is the process of sharing information so as to ensure consistency between redundant resources, such as software or hardware components, to improve reliability, fault-tolerance, or accessibility. ...
  8. (Replication (metallography)) Replication, in metallography, is the use of thin plastic films to nondestructively duplicate the microstructure of a component. The film is then examined at high magnifications.
  9. (Replication (optical media)) In optical disc manufacturing, replication is the process of producing discs via methods that do not involve "burning" blank CD, DVD or other discs; the latter is known as duplication.
  10. (Replication (scientific method)) Reproducibility is one of the main principles of the scientific method, and refers to the ability of a test or experiment to be accurately reproduced, or replicated, by someone else working independently.
  11. To make a copy (replica) of
  12. (replication) Process by which an object, person, place or idea may be copied mimicked or reproduced; Copy; reproduction; A response from the plaintiff to the defendant's plea
  13. (Replicates (Splits)) Two aliquots of the same sample treated identically throughout the laboratory analytical procedure. Analyses of laboratory replicates are beneficial when assessing precision associated with laboratory procedures but not with collection and handling.
  14. (Replicates) The number of times the entire experiment is repeated.  Combinations are not run consecutively.
  15. (replication) The process of synthesizing a copy of a DNA molecule from nucleotides using information contained within one strand of a template DNA molecule. The new strand of DNA is synthesized from the 5' end to the 3' end. See the Figure at NHGRI.
  16. (Replication) Also known as pressing, this involves the production of a CD from a polycarbonate mould with the data pressed into the mould using a stamper. This stamper is made from a glass master created from your original master disc. ...

  22. (replication) in database management, the function that keeps distributed databases synchronized by routinely copying the entire database or subsets of the database to other servers in the network. ...
  23. (Replication) Duplication of the chromosomal DNA molecule, by separating the two strands of the double helix and building a new complementary strand for each one, using the correspondence rule A -> T, T -> A, G -> C and C -> G. Each new DNA molecule thus contains one old strand and one new strand
  24. (Replication) The process by which two DNA strands separate, with each helping to duplicate a new strand. During reproduction, the DNA double helix unwinds and duplicates itself to pass on genetic information to the next generation. ...
