Explain why locating the origin of replication on one side of the circular chromosomes and the terminus of replication on the opposite side of the chromosome supported this conclusion.

If DNA is replicated in a unidirectional manner, the origin and terminus would be overlapped, since the process would begin and end at the same points on the circular chromosome. As the origin of replication and the terminus of replication of the chromosomes are located on the opposite sides, this requires two forks that proceed replication at the same rate in both the directions, with forks moving through half of the chromosome.

gametes or germ cells are haploid cells (example: sperm and ova) containing only one set (or n) number of chromosomes and autosomal or somatic cells are diploid cells containing 2n number of chromosomes.
