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.

Why does replication in prokaryotes differs from replication in eukaryotes?
Replication in prokaryotes differs from replication in eukaryotes for prokaryotic chromosomes have a single origin of replication, whereas eukaryotic chromosomes have many. Eukaryotes and prokaryotes for replication double stranded DNA, four kinds of dNTPS, primers, and origins.
Is DNA contained within a nucleus for both prokaryotes and eukaryotes?
Eukaryotes have a nucleus, prokaryotes do not.
What structure is present in eukaryotes but not in prokaryotes?
dna
What is the enzyme responsible for attaching free floating nucleotides to an open strand of DNA for replication?
Polymerase - in prokaryotes this is accomplished by pol III at the DNA fork. In eukaryotes this is performed by pol delta.
How does transcription differ from DNA replication Describe at least four differences?
DNA replication produces a complimentary DNA strand. Transcription produces a complimentary mRNA strand. The major enzyme that carries out DNA replication is DNA Polymerase III (in prokaryotes). The major enzyme that carries out transcription is RNA Polymerase. DNA replication results in two copies of the DNA. Transciption does not affect the DNA - it simply re-anneals (re-joins) after the process. In DNA replication the complementary base to A is T. In transcription the complementary base to A is U.
Why does replication in prokaryotes differs from replication in eukaryotes?
Replication in prokaryotes differs from replication in eukaryotes for prokaryotic chromosomes have a single origin of replication, whereas eukaryotic chromosomes have many. Eukaryotes and prokaryotes for replication double stranded DNA, four kinds of dNTPS, primers, and origins.
How is the DNA in prokaryotes different from from the DNA in a eukaryotes?
dna in eukaryotes is located in the nucleus
Who has dna domains- prokaryotes or eukaryotes?
I think prokaryotes
Is DNA contained within a nucleus for both prokaryotes and eukaryotes?
Eukaryotes have a nucleus, prokaryotes do not.
What sets of materials are required by both eukaryotes and prokaryotes for replication?
double-stranded DNA, 4 kinds of dNTPs, primers, origins from biology flashcards
What structure is present in eukaryotes but not in prokaryotes?
dna
What is the enzyme responsible for attaching free floating nucleotides to an open strand of DNA for replication?
Polymerase - in prokaryotes this is accomplished by pol III at the DNA fork. In eukaryotes this is performed by pol delta.
What is the site of DNA replication in eukaryotes?
DNA replication occurs in living cells. The name of the sites where DNA replication occurs is called the origins of replication.
How is the DNA prokaryote different from the DNA in a eukaroyte?
In Prokaryotes like bacteria DNA is in the form of clusters of chromosomes and in eukaryotes DNA is concentrated in the nucleus as they have it .
How is the DNA in a prokaryotes different from the DNA in a eukaryote?
In Prokaryotes like bacteria DNA is in the form of clusters of chromosomes and in eukaryotes DNA is concentrated in the nucleus as they have it .
How is the DNA in a prokaryotes different from the DNA in the eukaryote.?
In Prokaryotes like bacteria DNA is in the form of clusters of chromosomes and in eukaryotes DNA is concentrated in the nucleus as they have it .
How are eukaryotes and prokaryotes the 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.
