<span>During DNA synthesis the DNA is unwound but only a portion at a time, the replication fork progresses in the 5'-->3' direction, and both strands are synthesized at the same time. When the fork progresses, the 3'-->5' strand will need a new primer because it was working in the opposite direction of the fork. So the answer is because "DNA polymerase can assemble DNA only in the 5' to 3' direction".</span>
