The difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic DNA replication is

Easy

A

Prokaryotic replication is conservative whereas eukaryotic replication is semi-conservative.
B

Prokaryotic replication is bidirectional whereas eukaryotic replication is unidirectional.
C

Prokaryotic DNA replication is continuous whereas eukaryotic DNA replication is semi-discontinuous.
D

Prokaryotic DNA replication has only one origin of replication whereas eukaryotic DNA replication has multiple origin of replication.

Solution

DNA replication in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes are bi-directional, semi-discontinuous and semi-conservative in nature. But in prokaryotic DNA replication there is only one origin of replication whereas eukaryotic DNA replication multiple origin of replication are present.
