Answer:

Human genome has various replicons.

Explanation:

A replicon which is a unit of DNA, has potential to get replicated independently. So, the DNA replication occurs simultaneously at various replicons as a result of which human genome takes much less time than estimated to get replicated .

In contrast to this, prokaryotes like E.coli have only one origin of replication and thus one replicon due to which replication is restricted to once per cell cycle.

Ierofanga [76]

Breaking chemical bonds is typically an endothermic process, which means energy must be added (it must pull in energy)

Breaking of chemical bonds is always endothermic meaning it wants energy, so it takes energy from its surroundings and sucks it in. Think of 'endo' as inside. The chemical bonds want energy inside of it so it can break.

Forming of chemical bonds is exothermic, meaning it releases energy into its surroundings. Think of 'exo' as outside, or exterior, it releases its energy outside of itself.

I hope that makes some kind of sense :)
