DNA synthesis occurs in two ways: one on leading strand and other on lagging strand. DNA strand is formed in 5' to 3' direction. On leading strand continuous DNA synthesis takes place and on lagging strand short Okazaki fragments of DNA are formed in opposite direction in discontinuous way. Both DNA molecule formed contain one old parental strand and one newly synthesized daughter strand.
