Question

In Figure 6-13, the DNA strands colored red are synthesized later than the ones colored green.

True/false

Figure 6-13 At each replication fork, the lagging DNA strand is synthesized in Pieces~ Because both of the new strands at a replication fork are synthesized in the 5'-to-3 Direction, the fagging strand of DNA must be made initially as a series of short DNA strands, which are later joined together. The upper diagram shows two replication forks moving in opposite directions; the lower diagram shows the same forks a short time later. To replicate the lagging strand, DNA polymerase uses a backstitching mechanism: it senses short pieces of DNA (called Okazaki fragments) in the 5'ito-3' direction and then moves back along template strand (toward the fork) before synthesizing the next fragment.
