Compare and contrast Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic DNA replication For exam you must be able to describe at least 3 specific similarities between the two and 3 specific differences between the two. An example of 1 difference is that prokaryotic replication has 1 replication bubble (one oriC). Eukaryotic replication has many replication bubbles (multiple origins of replication)
