Compare replication in prokaryotes (circular DNA) and eukaryotes (chromosomes).

Expert Solution

replication in prokaryotes (circular DNA)

Replication in eukaryotes(chromosomes)

1) Occurs inside the cytoplasm

2) Prokaryotic chromosome contains only single origin of replication.

3) only one point of origin, replication occurs in two opposing directions at the same time.

4) Replication in prokaryote is simpler process compare to Eukaryote chromosomal DNA replication

5) Small amount of DNA

6) The process is rapid, 2000 base pairs per second

7) Here replication is continuous process

8) Circular, double-stranded DNA

9) Two circular chromosomes are obtained

1) Occurs inside the nucleus

2) Eukaryotic chromosome contains many origin of replication

3) multiple points of origin, and use unidirectional replication

4) Replication in Eukaryote is complex process compare to prokaryote circular DNA replication

5) The DNA is 50 times more than prokaryotic DNA

6) The process is slow, 100 base pairs per second

7) This process occurs in the S-phase of cell cycle

8) Linear, double-stranded DNA with end

9) Two sister chromatids are obtained

Hope i explain your doubt clearly.Thank you
