The okazaki fragments in DNA chain growth
-
- polymerize in the 3’ - to - 5’ direction and forms replication fork
- prove semi-conservative nature of DNA replication
- polymerize in the 5’ - to - 3’ direction and explain 3’ - to - 5’ DNA replication
- result in transcription.
Correct Option: C
Okazaki fragments in DNA are linked up by the enzyme DNA ligase. Replication always ocur in 5' - 3' direction. Okazaki fragments synthesized on 3' - 5' DNA template, join to form lagging strand which grows in 3' - 5' direction.
