Answer #1

Answer - 2 (Two replicating fork)

Explanation - DNA replication is the process in which the double-stranded DNA replicates and makes a copy of itself during cell division.DNA of the circular bacteria chromosome is unwinded at the origin of replication that forms a replication bubble. The replication bubble is a replication fork, which is a Y-shaped junction.  DNA replication is initiated at a single origin of replication later two replication forks are formed. These replication forks move in opposite directions as replication further proceeds.
