During replication of DNA, Okazaki fragments are formed in the direction of
a)	3’5’	b)	5’3’	c)	5’5’	d)	3’3’

(b)

Okazaki et. Al, (1968) suggested that during DNA replication only one strand shows a continuous replication (leading strand), while other strand (lagging strand) replicates in a discontinuous manner,  synthesises short fragments called Okazaki fragments. Both the strands synthesise new strand in 5’ 3’ direction (of new strand).
