Is it true that Replication occurs simultaneously at many points on a DNA molecule?

Yes it is. The eukaryotic DNA polymerase works much slower than the prokaryotic DNA polymerase, working at around 50 bases per second. With as many as 80 million bases to replicate the job is achieved in about one hour by having many replication forks. The simple answer: It's quicker.

What are the parts of a phosphlipid molecule?
There are two parts to the phospholipid molecule. One is a hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain, which points away from water. The other is a hydrophilic phosphate ionic group, often represented as the "head" of the molecule, which points towards water.
Why IUPAC name Diaminomethanal is given to urea?
The molecule has two amino groups (the NH2) the naming for this is diamino Furthermore the molecule has a Keaton the C=O (note that the =O points upwards)
What type of shape is the pyridine?
The pyridine molecule is a planar and cyclic shape, similar to a regular hexagon. It has a nitrogen atom in the center and five carbon atoms connected to it, forming a ring.
Where can a punnett square for progeria be found?
Progeria is not caused by inheriting the trait, but rather it is a points mutation that occurs in sperm before conception.
What is a biological effect of the hydrogen bonding between molecule of water?
living things can survive in the water beneath a lake's frozen surface
Mountain formation can result when what occurs?
When subduction occurs at points of plates collision.
What are the parts of the phosopholipid molecule?
There are two parts to the phospholipid molecule. One is a hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain, which points away from water. The other is a hydrophilic phosphate ionic group, often represented as the "head" of the molecule, which points towards water.
What reproduction occurs?
Reproduction occurs at different points for different organisms. In humans, it occurs when sperm fertilizes egg.
How does a solid molecule move?
they vibrate around fixed points
Why do molecular compounds have low melting points and low boiling points relative ionic substances?
The bonds in the molecule are weaker.
The points on a standing wave where no motion occurs are?
The breaking point.
What does reproduction occur?
Reproduction occurs at different points for different organisms. In humans, it occurs when sperm fertilizes egg.
Why does motion occurs?
motion occurs when an object changes its position relative to a reference point.
How does DNA replication differ in prokaryotes and eukaryotes?
1. In eukaryotic cells replication forks make several start sites along the DNA strand which forms replication "bubbles" which get larger the more DNA is copied, and stop when DNA replication is complete. In prokaryotic cell's DNA is formed in a loop, two replication forks start along one part of the loop (origin replication) and the replication forks copy DNA in opposite directions until they meet at the other side of the loop, making an exact copy of DNA.
What are the parts of a phosphlipid molecule?

How many crash points are involved with intersections?
Hands free cell phones remove the risks involved with driving and talking on the phone simultaneously.
How are mutations prevented during DNA replication?
DNA polymerase checks DNA for errors.DNA polymerase checks DNA for errors by breaking the hydrogen bonds between the paired nitrogen bases in the DNA molecule. This causes the molecule to separate into two individual strands.
