Detailed explanation-1: -In eukaryotes, as DNA is present inside the nucleus, DNA replication takes place inside the nucleus.
Detailed explanation-2: -Eukaryotic DNA replication requires multiple replication forks, while prokaryotic replication uses a single origin to rapidly replicate the entire genome. DNA replication always occurs in the nucleus. Eukaryotic DNA replication involves more polymerases than prokaryotic replication.
Detailed explanation-3: -DNA replication occurs in the nucleus in eukaryotic cells and in the nucleoid region of prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells are cells that have a nucleus and membrane bound organelles, such as plant cells and animal cells. Eukaryotic cells contain their DNA in the nucleus, and thus this is where DNA replication occurs.
Detailed explanation-4: -DNA replication occurs in the cytoplasm of prokaryotes and in the nucleus of eukaryotes. Regardless of where DNA replication occurs, the basic process is the same. The structure of DNA lends itself easily to DNA replication. Each side of the double helix runs in opposite (antiparallel) directions.
