Respuesta :

Answer;

Prokaryotes only have one origin of replication to initiate replication.

Explanation;

  • DNA replication is a process that takes place in living organisms which involves copying DNA strands to form identical new strands.
  • The process is a semi-conservative process meaning that the newly synthesized strands each contains one strand from the original DNA strand and one new strand. This process is catalyzed by enzyme DNA polymerase.
  • The process of DNA replication is initiated at a point called origin of replication by enzyme DNA polymerase. Prokaryotes have only one origin of replication while eukaryotes have multiple origins of replication.
