Discontinuous synthesis of DNA occurs in one strand, because:
1. DNA molecule being synthesised is very long
2. DNA dependent DNA polymerase catalyses polymerisation only in one direction (5’ → 3’)
3. it is a more efficient process
4. DNA ligase joins the short stretches of DNA

While analysing the DNA of an organism a total number of 5386 nucleotides were found out of which the proportion of different bases were: Adenine = 29%, Guanine = 17%, Cytosine = 32%, Thymine = 17%. Considering the Chargaff’s rule it can be concluded that:
1. it is a double stranded circular DNA
2. It is single stranded DNA
3. It is a double stranded linear DNA
4. No conclusion can be drawn
