Solution

The correct options are
A Ori
C origin of replication
Every species has a unique sequence in their genome, known as the ‘ori site’ or ‘origin of replication’. It is typically a specific number of base pairs long that varies according to species. This is the portion at which the process of DNA replication begins. Prokaryotes have just one such site in their genome while eukaryotes would have multiple ori sites.
