The DNA double helix consists of two strands of DNA that are running in opposite directions of each other (antiparallel). Additionally, DNA polymerases can only build new strands of DNA from the 5' end to the 3' end. Explain how this affects the way DNA replicated, using the following terms correctly in your explanation: leading strand, lagging strand, Okazaki fragments, replication fork. (5pts)

During DNA replication Both leading and lagging daughter DNA strands are synthesized in the 5’ to 3’ direction. The leading strand is synthesized in the 3’ to 5’ direction but the lagging strand is synthesized 5’ to 3’. The leading strand is synthesized in the 5’ to 3’ direction but the lagging strand is synthesized 3’ to 5’. Both leading and lagging daughter DNA strands are synthesized in the 3’ to 5’ direction.
