(1 point) a) It is substantially more efficient to make several shorter strands rather than one longer strand of DNA. b) There lacks enough cellular DNA ligase for bonding Okazaki fragments together if they were produced from both parental strands. c) The two parental strands of DNA are antiparallel and DNA polymerase makes DNA in the 5%u2019 3%u2019 direction only. d) By having one leading strand and one lagging strand the cell can limit the amount of DNA polymerase used for chromosomal replication. • Show less
