Question

short segments of newly synthesized dna are joined into a continuous strand by
dna polymerase
helicase
single - strand binding protein
primase
ligase

Explanation:

DNA polymerase synthesizes DNA strands by adding nucleotides. Helicase unwinds DNA. Single - strand binding protein stabilizes single - stranded DNA. Primase synthesizes RNA primers. Ligase joins short DNA segments (Okazaki fragments) into a continuous strand.

Answer:

ligase
