Detailed explanation-1: -Answer. Answer: The correct answer is-D. continuous replication.
Detailed explanation-2: -DNA that has been cleaved by nucleases is not related to Okazaki fragments. Single-strand binding proteins are small proteins used to prevent DNA from reannealing during replication.
Detailed explanation-3: -Okazaki fragments are then synthesized via extension of these RNA primers by DNA polymerase. An important consequence of such RNA priming is that newly synthesized Okazaki fragments contain an RNA-DNA joint, the discovery of which provided critical evidence for the role of RNA primers in DNA replication.
Detailed explanation-4: -This is used as a building block for the synthesis of DNA in the lagging strand. On the template strand, polymerase will synthesize in the opposite direction from the replication fork. Once the template becomes discontinuous, it will create an Okazaki fragment.
Detailed explanation-5: -Okazaki Fragments Definition The Okazaki fragments on the lagging strand are associated to generate a continuous new molecule of DNA.
