Answer:

Explanation:

Prokaryotic DNA exhibit single origin of replication while eukaryotic DNA has multiple origins of replication because eukaryotic DNA is much larger and multiple origin of replicate helps them to replicate the whole genome in short time duration.

Large DNA of eukaryotes contain high amount of material to be replicated and multiple origin sites helps them to replicate in short time. DNA replication initiate at each origin site independentaly and terminate at corresponding termination sites.

Hence, the correct answer is D.

Choice (a) is the most correct. Fish must excrete large quantities of water as a way of keeping the homeostasis in their cells. Otherwise, the water levels in the cell could become too high and the cells would likely rupture, leading to the death of the organism.
