Answer:

The correct answer is a. Both of the original DNA strands act as templates during replication.

Explanation:

During the DNA replication both the strands of the DNA act as the template strand. DNA polymerase is the enzyme that replicates both the DNA strand.  

One of the strand of DNA gets continuously replicated which is called the leading strand. While the other strand is replicated in a discontinuous manner called lagging strand.

As due to discontinuous replication in the lagging strand short DNA fragments are formed called Okazaki fragments which are joined together by DNA ligase. So both the original DNA strands act as template during replication.

How does homeostasis work in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?
Roman55 [17]

The process of passing genetic material from one generation to the next depends completely on how cells grow and divide. To reproduce, a simple organism such as bacteria or yeast simply copies its DNA (through a process called replication) and splits in two. But organisms that reproduce sexually go through a complicated dance that includes mixing and matching strands of DNA (a process called recombination) and then reducing the amount of DNA in special sex cells to arrive at completely new genetic combinations for their offspring.

There are two basic kinds of organisms — ones with a nucleus and those without a nucleus (a compartment filled with DNA surrounded by a membrane called a nuclear envelope):

<span>Prokaryotes: Organisms whose cells lack a nucleus and therefore have DNA floating loosely in the liquid center of the cell. Prokaryotes divide, and thus reproduce, by simple mitosis.</span><span>Eukaryotes: Organisms that have a well-defined nucleus to house and protect the DNA. Eukaryotes divide by meiosis for sexual reproduction.</span>
