Wny does the "Tagging strand" of DNA heed to be replicated "discontinuously" In Okazaki ragments? O because there it is made out of RNA instead of DNA because the replisome is moving in the opposite direction for simple continuous production in the 5' to 3' direction because the new lagging strand is made in the 3' to 5' direction O because that's how the DNA in made on both strands of the molecule

Question
Why does the "lagging strand" of DNA need to be replicated "discontinuously" in Okazaki fragments? because there it is made out of RNA instead of DNA because the replisome is moving in the opposite direction for simple continuous production in the 5' to 3' direction because the new lagging strand is made in the 3' to 5' direction because that's how the DNA in made on both strands of the molecule

Because of the way the lagging strand of an DNA molecule is replicated, the 3' end of the molecule is usually not completely copied into a double-stranded molecule. Why doesn't this normally affect cell function? the genes in this area are duplicated elsewhere on the chromosome DNA is not important for normal cell function there are only genes on the other strand of DNA - not on the one ending in 3' the telomere region does not contain genes
