State whether the following statements is true/false regarding DNA replication.
1. In E. coli replication begins at the origin of replication and proceeds in one direction until the entire circular DNA molecule has been copied.
2. The chromosome of the fruit fly (D. melanogaster) is about twice as large as the E. coli chromosome.
