II only
D
I, II, and III
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -So, the correct option is ‘Semidiscontinuous and semiconservative’.

Detailed explanation-2: -One of the most important concepts of DNA replication is that it is a semi-conservative process (Figure 7.2. 7). This means that every double helix in the new generation of an organism consists of one complete “old” strand and one complete “new” strand wrapped around each other.
