Drag the labels onto the diagram to identify the stages in which the lagging strand is synthesized. DNA ligase seals the gaps between the pieces, and eventually forms a continuous strand. DNA polymerase begins synthesizing the lagging strand by adding nucleotides to a short segment of RNA. After each piece of the lagging strand is complete, it is released from D NA polymerase. A different DNA polymerase replaces the RNA segments with DNA.
