## Label the Parts of the DNA Replication Fork### Interactive Diagram ExplanationThe diagram presented illustrates the various components involved in the DNA replication fork. To enhance understanding, let's transcribe the labels and describe the functionality of each part:**Components to be Labeled:**1. **DNA ligase**2. **Okazaki fragment**3. **Open beta clamp**4. **DNA helicase**5. **Closed beta clamp**6. **DNA gyrase**7. **DNA primase**8. **Leading strand**9. **DNA polymerase I**10. **RNA primer**11. **DNA polymerase III**12. **Parent DNA**13. **Clamp loader**14. **Single-strand binding proteins**### Description:#### 1. DNA LigaseAn enzyme that facilitates the joining of DNA strands together by catalyzing the formation of a phosphodiester bond.#### 2. Okazaki FragmentShort sequences of DNA nucleotides which are synthesized discontinuously and later linked together by DNA ligase to create the lagging strand during DNA replication.#### 3. Open Beta Clamp, 4. Closed Beta ClampThe clamp is a protein tool that holds the DNA polymerase in place on the DNA strand during replication. It ensures high processivity of DNA polymerase.#### 4. DNA HelicaseAn enzyme that unwinds the DNA helix ahead of the replication fork, allowing the single strands to be copied.#### 5. DNA GyrasePrevents the DNA double helix from getting too tightly wound as the DNA is opened up for replication.#### 6. DNA PrimaseAn enzyme involved in the replication of DNA and is a type of RNA polymerase. It synthesizes short RNA sequences called primers which serve as the starting point for DNA synthesis.#### 7. Leading StrandThe DNA strand that is synthesized continuously during replication.#### 8. DNA Polymerase IEnzyme that removes the RNA primer and fills in the gaps with DNA.#### 9. RNA PrimerA short strand of RNA that serves as a starting point for DNA synthesis.#### 10. DNA Polymerase IIIEnzyme that synthesizes new strands of DNA complementary to the target strand during replication.#### 11. Parent DNAThe original double-stranded DNA that is unwound and replicated.#### 12. Clamp LoaderA protein complex that loads the
