Why is there a problem replicating the ends of linear DNA?

A. Leading strand synthesis primed at the replication origin of a linear DNA can't remove and replace the primer. B. Lagging strand synthesis primed at the ends of a linear DNA can't be removed and replaced because there is no 3'-OH available. C. Since replication only initiates at the ends of linear DNA, the priming of each leading strand leaves a primer at the end that cannot be removed. D. Okazaki fragments are generated along both strands but DNA ligase is inhibited by the Tus-Ter complexes at the ends of the DNA. E. Primase cannot copy telomere DNA.
