Answer:

B. Multiple origins of replication are activated per chromosome.

Explanation:

DNA replication runs in 2 directions (bidirectional), starting at the origin of replication an moving in both directions from that point. A eukaryotic chromosome may be replicating at many points along its length at any one time.

DNA is always copied in a 5´ ⇒ 3´ direction, this makes the lagging strand to be synthesized discontinuously as short okazaki fragments.

The whole process happens at the same time in both strands in a replication fork. DNA may have different replication forks at the same time to speed up the process.
