Multi cellular organisms are composed of many cells whereas unicellular organisms are composed of single cell. Multicellularity is indeed a progressive attribute of evolution where cells form tissue which forms organ and then organ system and finally an organism. Both multi cellular and unicellular organisms has advantages and disadvantages of their own. One of the main disadvantage of multi cellular organisms is that due to such a complex composition and functioning they require a large amount of energy for their maintenance and survival. Different organs and system require a huge amount of energy when it comes to comparison with unicellular organisms. A large amount of energy is also wasted in all these life processes. Though multi cellular organisms can survive in a variety of environmental conditions but then also their survival is difficult than any unicellular organism.

RNA primers in Okazaki fragments are usually very short, less than 10 nucleotides and sometimes as short at 2 nucleotides in len
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

During DNA replication each parental DNA strand serves as a template to a new complementary strand. DNA polymerase is the main enzyme responsible for this process, it catalyzes the addition of nucleotides to form the new DNA chain.  

The complementary nature of the DNA strands, presents a difficulty for DNA replication: DNA polymerase catalyzes the polymerization of DNA only in the 5’ to3’ -in the leading DNA strand. Thus, the opposite DNA strand, the lagging strand, faced an obstacle that is solved by the Okazaki small fragments. The primase enzyme synthesizes small RNA fragments complementary to the lagging DNA strand. These RNA fragments serve as primers for the DNA polymerase. To remove this RNA primers and form a continuous complementary lagging strand, RNase H and DNAse ligase will further cut and join the DNA again.  

DNA polymerase has a higher processivity than primase, if processivity is the average number of nucleotides that it is capable to continuously add to the template strand. Primase dissociates from the template often during DNA replication as it has to constantly add new RNA primers to the strand.
