Multiple Choice
Which of the following provides the correct order of events in the synthesis of the lagging strand?
A) Primase adds RNA primer, DNA polymerase III creates a segment of new DNA, DNA polymerase I removes the primer, and ligase seals the gaps.
B) Primase adds primer, DNA polymerase I removes the primer, DNA polymerase III extends the segment, and ligase seals the gap.
C) Ligase adds bases to the primase, the primase generates polymerase I, polymerase III adds to the segment of new DNA, and helicase winds the DNA.
D) Helicase unwinds the DNA, primase creates a primer, DNA polymerase I elongates the segment of new DNA, DNA polymerase III removes the primer, and ligase seals the gaps in the DNA.
