The average number of nucleotides added before a polymerase dissociates defines its processivity. Nucleotides added per unit time dissociates defines its polymerisation

The 3’->5’ exonuclease activity removes the mispaired nucleotide, and the polymerase begins again known as proofreading

The source of this breakage is the incorporation of some uracil into DNA in place of thymine. When the uracil is removed by a repair system, the leading strand has breaks until a thymine is inserted. Thus, the lagging strand is synthesized discontinuously and the leading strand is synthesized continuously. This is called semidiscontinuous replication.
