replication is more complex than replication in bacteria due to several features of eukaryotic
DNA.

15. The proteins involved in DNA replication have unique roles to resolve many complex issues.
The primary function of many proteins requires the breaking and forming of bonds.
Hydrogen bonds between the double helix must be broken. Covalent bonds called
phosphodiester linkages are also formed and broken during DNA replication.
16. Eukaryotic and bacterial cells differ in the number of molecules and types of DNA
polymerase. Which of the following statements are true?
