Question

What is one difference between DNA replication in bacteria versus eukaryotes? a) Eukaryotic chromosomes are replicated bi-directionally, while bacterial chromosomes are replicated in one direction. b) Eukaryotic chromosomes have many origins of replication and replicate bi-directionally, while bacteria have only one origin of replication and replicate uni-directionally. c) Bacterial chromosomes are replicated bi-directionally, while eukaryotic chromosomes are replicated in one direction. d) Eukaryotic chromosomes have many origins of replication, while bacteria have only one origin of replication. e) The process is identical in bacterial and eukaryotic DNA replication.

Answer 1

Answer:

b) Eukaryotic chromosomes have many origins of replication and replicate bi-directionally, while bacteria have only one origin of replication and replicate uni-directionally.

Explanation:

Eukaryotic cells on the other hand, have multiple points of origin, and use unidirectional replication within the nucleus of the cell.
