Okay, so the question is basically asking, in prokaryotes, what is the dna replication in these chromosomes? so, in a bacterial chromosome that is circular, there is the origin of replication, there is a single origin of replication where the replication bubble forms.
00:49
Now, the replication bubble means that there is two replication forks.
01:17
Okay, so replication forks.
01:20
Now, as this is going on, these forks go in both directions as they expand out.
01:58
We still have two replication for us but we still do have okay so we still have newly created dna complementary strand being made now these are still again complementarily bound so we have a couple characteristics here we need to highlight one we have first thing is that it is, replication is bidirectional.
03:05
It's going in both directions of the chromosome because it's a circular chromosome.
03:10
It doesn't really matter which way you go.
03:11
It'll go around the whole circular chromosome.
03:15
So it's bi -directional because the fork is opening up as it's extending out of the chromosome.
03:20
So it's bi -directional...
