First of all, what is a hotspot?
A hotspot, is a place with a hotter temperature in relation to its surroundings.
So, when we think of "biodiversity hotspot", what exactly does that mean?
It's a place with a higher biodiversity in relation to its surroundings, but also with more concentration of species.
So, that's why forests are considered a biodiversity hotspot. If you want some visual content, try finding a geographical map of Africa.

The interesting thing about them, is when you search their biodiversity, you'll see what a biodiversity hotspot looks like

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.
