A. can start in many different places on a sequence at the same time. 

Answer: The correct answer is A) can start in many different places on a sequence at the same time.    

DNA replication is a process of copying DNA so that two identical replica of DNA are produced from one original DNA. It is essential for the process of cell division. It is initiated from a specific site/ specific sequence of nucleotides that is called origin of replication.

There is single origin of replication in prokaryotes ( as they have smaller genome size) whereas eukaryotes ( having large genome) have multiple origin of replication so that their whole DNA can be replicated within less time.
