The lagging strand in DNA replication _________________________. A-is produced in sections, or segments, known as Okazaki fragments B-requires the enzyme ligase to connect the individual fragments together to form a new strand C-is called discontinuous because the nucleotides are not laid down one after the other D-All of the above are correct HELP??

OpenStudy (shrutipande9):

@alyssa.ward2016 are u there?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@shrutipande9

OpenStudy (shrutipande9):

have u studied the process of replication completely?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not really, i have a lesson on it but theres somuch information its hard to take it all in and understand it all ya know?

OpenStudy (shrutipande9):

okay..i will show u a few videos...after watching that if u have doubts..i can sort that out..okay?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright thanks!

OpenStudy (shrutipande9):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27TxKoFU2Nw see this one..it is better

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it B

OpenStudy (shrutipande9):

not really

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No its C

OpenStudy (shrutipande9):

i hv given me all the possible answers...did u see d video?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well obviously its not D or B so its either A or C

OpenStudy (shrutipande9):

as the lagging srand template runs from 5' to 3' the new strand formed as to be developed in breaks from opposite direction....so okazaki fragments are formed. its not B because ligase is required for both the strands...and its obv not c because its not discontinuous

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I said A the first time lol

OpenStudy (shrutipande9):

yeah but then u also said b and c

OpenStudy (anonymous):

true..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im so bad in biology....

OpenStudy (shrutipande9):

u r not..just read nicely...u will understand everything...if u dont...i am here to help..but make an attempt to read first
