Does DNA replication take place in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells?
No, DNA replication takes place inside the nucleus during S phase of cell cycle.
How are the Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cells different?
Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus and eukaryotic cells do. The main difference to remember is that everything in a eukaryotic cell is much larger and more complex than what would be fouind in a prokaryotic cell. Bacteria is made of prokaryotic cells. Plants and animals are made of eukaryotic cells. In addition to not having a nucleus (the main difference), prokaryotes also have circular DNA while eukaryotes have linear DNA. As such, prokaryotes do not have okazaki fragments formed during DNA replication. Eukaryote genes have introns and exons while prokaryotes do not, and eukaryotes have more "junk" DNA in general.
How do eukaryotes speed the process of replication-since they have multiple long chromosomes?
The eukaryotic genome is so much larger than the prokaryotic genome that it would not be practical to rely on a single origin of replication site when copying it for cell division. By incorporating several, the eukaryotic cell can divide without unnecessarily long delay in chromosomal replication.
DNA is copied during a process called?
Replication.
What separates the DNA strands during replication?
That would be called the Replication Fork
What events must occur during division in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells?
Replication of DNA,segregation of the "original" and its "replica" follow, and cytokinesis end the cycle.

When does chromosomal replication occur?
It occurs in the nucleus of a cell

Where does the Replication of DNA molecule happens?
It occurs in the nucleus during the S Phase.
What is copies during replication?
A cell's DNA is copied during replication.
DNA is copied during a process called?
Replication.
How many ATP molecules are gained?
In cellular respiration, by way of glycolysis, you gain 38 ATP molecules if Prokaryotic and 36 for Eukaryotic as 2 are used for energy during active transport.
What separates the DNA strands during replication?
That would be called the Replication Fork
What is the similarities between prokaryotic and eukaryotic?
There is a theory. This theory states that mitochondria and chloroplasts were once a free living bacterias(prokaryote) long time ago. People thought this because mitochondria and chloroplasts are not like other organelles of the cell. They divide independently during cell division, they both have their own DNA, and even those DNAs (known as mtDNA) replicates.
