The lagging strand is characterized by a series of short segments of DNA (Okazaki fragments) that will be joined together to form a finished lagging strand. The experiments that led to the discovery of Okazaki fragments gave evidence for which of the following ideas?

#Unit 3. Fundamental Processes
  1. DNA polymerase is an enzyme that synthesizes leading and lagging strands during replication only in one direction.

  2. DNA is a polymer consisting of four monomers: adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine.

  3. DNA is the genetic material.

  4. Bacterial replication is fundamentally different from eukaryotic replication. The key should not be way longer than the distractors.
