Why must the lagging strand at a replication fork be replicated in short fragments?
DNA is always replicated in short fragments.
The slower replication requires DNA polymerase to start at several different places.
It is being replicated 3’ to 5’, which is backwards and slower than 5’ to 3’.
It is replicated toward the origin, but the fork is opening away from the origin.
There are several DNA polymerase molecules on the lagging strand.
