The Okazaki fragment moves the lagging strand away from the replication fork 5' --> 3'.
<h3>What does Okazaki Fragment do?</h3>
- Okazaki fragments are small stretches of DNA formed during discontinuous lagging strand synthesis during DNA replication. They are important because they allow the synthesis of both daughter strands required for cell division.
- DNA polymerases are enzymes involved in DNA replication. It synthesizes DNA only in the 5'-3' direction. However, double-stranded DNA is antiparallel, so DNA synthesis should occur in both directions. Thus, Okazaki fragments are formed during synthesis of the lagging template strand.
<h3>What is difference between leading and lagging strands?</h3>
The main difference between leading and lagging strands is that the leading strand is the DNA strand that grows continuously during DNA replication whereas the lagging strand grows discontinuously by forming short segments known as Okazaki fragments.

Answer:
Without food humans cant live so we cant imagine the world without food. As food is the source of energy .
Easy. The word is extinct!
Hope it helped! ;)
The answer is letter A. The entire population of the species
spends winter in Oyamel
Oyamel is one of the most popular places where Monarch
butterflies would breed over winter season. But because of deforestation and
climate change there was a big decline on the number of monarch butterflies
going to Mexico and back over the past few years.
