What do you mean by one area? If by one area you mean does it start at one area then stop and continue on another area then no, DNA replication is continuous and when it takes place it is the most important thing going on in the cell. The cells resources are directed at this process * DNA replication means copying the entire DNA molecule, so it involves the entire molecule, but not all at the same time. In bacteria (prokaryotic cells) replication begins at one point in the molecule and continues all the way round the circular molecule.
Beginning at just one place would take too long in eukaryotic cells; someone has calculated that our longest chromosomes would take about a fortnight to replicate, and we cannot wait that long! So replication begins at a number of sites along the length of the DNA molecule. At each replication site, as the DNA strands are separated there is a bulge in the molecule called a replication bubble. As replication proceeds these bubbles become longer, and eventually they merge into one another and the job is done.

Replication of cellular components such as DNA takes place within the cytoplasm or nucleoid which some prokaryotes have. A nucleoid is a primitive form of a nucleus.
The ori region, or origin of replication, in a plasmid is a specific sequence of DNA where replication begins. It is necessary for the plasmid to replicate independently within a host cell. The ori region contains the necessary signals for the initiation of DNA replication.
The main components of a replication machine include DNA helicase, which unwinds the DNA double helix; DNA polymerase, which adds new nucleotides to the growing DNA strand; primase, which synthesizes RNA primers for DNA replication to start; and DNA ligase, which joins the Okazaki fragments on the lagging strand. These components work together to ensure accurate and efficient replication of DNA.
D-loop replication occurs during the process of DNA repair in the mitochondria. This type of replication involves the formation of a displacement loop (D-loop) structure, which allows for the repair of damaged mitochondrial DNA by DNA polymerases.
DNA replication starts at multiple points along the DNA strand simultaneously. This process allows for efficient and rapid duplication of the genetic material.
DNA replication takes place in NUCLEUS
DNA replication takes place in the nucleus of a cell.
DNA replication takes place in the nucleus of human cells.
DNA replication takes place in the chromosome which is located in the nucleus of a cell.
only once
DNA replication begins in areas of DNA molecules are called origins of replication.
DNA replication takes place in the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell and in the cytoplasm of a prokaryotic cell.
No, DNA replication takes place in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. The nucleus contains the necessary enzymes and machinery for DNA replication to occur accurately.
False: DNA replication starts at origins of replication which can be anywhere on the DNA molecule. Replication is taking place at multiple origins at the same time.
DNA replication takes place in the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell (plant or animal cell or the cytoplasm of a prokaryotic cell (bacteria).
