Synthesis of DNA using the leading strand is a straight forward process. It allows for the formation of a continuous, new daughter strand which is synthesized starting at the daughter cells ___’ end and moving away from the ______________________________ fork. The lagging strand, however, cannot be formed in one, continuous strand because the new daughter strand is formed moving toward the ____________________ fork. Instead, the lagging strand forms via discontinuous replication, which creates fragments of new DNA called __________ fragments. An enzyme called _____________________ links together the fragments into a continuous strand.
