Conservative replication suggests that the entire double-stranded DNA molecule serves as a template for a new molecule of DNA, which would be entirely synthesized from new nucleotides, leaving the original DNA molecule intact. This contrasts with semiconservative replication, where each strand of the original DNA serves as a template for a new strand, and dispersive replication, where segments of the original DNA and newly synthesized DNA are interspersed in both strands of each daughter molecule.
