Discontinuous synthesis of DNA occurs in one strand, because
(a) DNA molecule being synthesised is very long
(b) DNA dependent DNA polymerase catalyses polymerisation only in one direction (5′ → 3′)

Explanation:
Discontinuous synthesis of DNA occurs in one strand, because DNA dependent DNA polymerase catalyses polymerisation only in one direction (5′ → 3′).
