In DNA replication, continuously synthesis occurs on the leading strandMultiple choice question.without RNA primers.toward the origin of replication.in the 5' to 3' direction.and creates Okazaki fragments.

Why is the lagging strand synthesised in Okazaki fragments? Group of answer choicesBecause it is synthesised towards the replication forkBecause DNA polymerase III can only synthesise short fragmentsBecause it is synthesised by DNA polymerase I, which can only do short regions Because it is synthesised away from the replication fork
