Self replicating

I speculated accuracy of replicating the DNA genome in a certain amount of time as another reason, because there is wear and tear on a protein. If you can have multiple replicating enzyme complexes (replisomes) doing just a part of the ...

... time. And your reason #2 could accurately describe most biological processes :wink: ! But my guess for reason #2 would be for accuracy reasons in replicating the DNA in multiple short strands with the DNA repair and DNA accuracy proofreading complexes could do a proficient job. I am also coming ...

I need words that I can understand to help me understand what goes on in replicating the ends of DNA molecules... Can anybody helpa brotha out?

... (otherwise it would take relatively forever for a eukaryotic cell, what with there giant repetetive genomes). so a cell would have no problem replicating the area between the centromeres as it should be full of the replication orgins just like the rest of the DNA. And, centromere sections ...
