Where does the replication of DNA occur?
Answered
In eukaryotic cells, DNA replication occurs in the nucleus, where the DNA is located. In prokaryotic cells, which lack a membrane-bound nucleus, replication occurs in the cytoplasm. The process begins at specific locations on the DNA called origins of replication and proceeds bidirectionally.
