Compare the leading and lagging strands during replication?
the leading strand is synthesized in the same direction as the movement of the replication fork, and the lagging strand is synthesized in the opposite direction
What fragments of DNA produced from the lagging strand that must be joined called?
Okazaki fragments
What are the small segments synthesized in the lagging strand of DNA?
Okazaki fragments
What are the fragments making up the noncontinuous strand called?
If you are referring to the fragmented lagging strand for DNA replication, the fragments are called Okazaki fragments.
Why is the lagging strand replicated with stretches of Okazaki fragments and that is why its synthesis is considered to be?
discontinuous
What is okazaki?
okazaki fragments are new pieces of Dna On the lagging strand
Compare the leading and lagging strands during replication?

What fragments of DNA produced from the lagging strand that must be joined called?
Okazaki fragments
What are the small segments synthesized in the lagging strand of DNA?
Okazaki fragments
What fragments are sections of DNA made on the lagging strand?
okazaki fregments
What are the fragments making up the noncontinuous strand called?
If you are referring to the fragmented lagging strand for DNA replication, the fragments are called Okazaki fragments.
Why is the lagging strand replicated with stretches of Okazaki fragments and that is why its synthesis is considered to be?
discontinuous
Where does ssb protein bind on lagging strand or on leading strand?
ssb protein bind to the lagging strand as leading strand is invovled in dna replication and lagging strand is invovled in okazaki fragment formation
What are okazaki fragments used to elongate?
Okazaki fragments are used to elongate the lagging strand. These fragments are used as primers for RNA polymerase to fill up the gaps in the newly formed complimentary DNA on the lagging strand. DNA ligase then seals up the gaps.
What unwinds in multipule areas as dns is replicated?
The lagging strand. It is replicated in Okazaki fragments.
Which of the following statements best explains why the leading and lagging strands are synthesized using two different mechanisms?
The leading strand is created continuously, but the lagging strand is created as small fragments, known as Okazaki fragments. These fragments are later joined together to form one complete strand.
What stand of DNA replicated in okasaki fragments?
The lagging strand of DNA contains okazaki fragments, which are later joined by DNA ligase
