The lagging strand runs in a   5’ to 3’ direction and is replicated  discontinuously.

<h3>Why a discontinuous or delayed tape?</h3>

The other strand, called delayed, is replicated discontinuously. In this case, the presence of Okazaki fragments is necessary, small pieces of DNA that will bind to form a new strand. - DNA is degraded by two types of enzymes.

The ends of a DNA strand are classified as 5' and 3', as they correspond to the carbon number of the pentose where the phosphate and hydroxyl (OH) group are located, which join in a phosphodiester bond.
