Practice: Which of the following statements correctly describes the difference between the leading and the lagging strands of DNA during DNA replication?
Practice: The mechanisms of DNA synthesis differs between the two new daughter strands during replication. This is due to the fact that:
Practice: Below is a close-up of the portion of a DNA replication bubble.
