Answer #1

From the given figure, it can be observed that first the fragment C was synthesized as okazaki fragment. It is because the overall direction of replication indicates C-->B-->A is the sequence of okazaki fragments formed by replication process. And the process of replication always occurs in 5'-3' direction.

Hence, the correct option is (c) Fragment C

Fragment A is synthesized at third

Fragment B is synthesized at second.

Hope it helps, Good luck !!!!
