During DNA replication the leading and lagging strands are synthesized differently. The reason for this difference is:

1. DNA polymerase can work only on one strand at a time
2. The single-strand binding proteins cannot bind to both strands of DNA
3. DNA ligase works only in the 3ʹ →5ʹ direction
4. DNA polymerase can add new nucleotides only to the 3’ end of a growing strand
