🧬 DNA Replication: Helicase, Okazaki Fragments & Ligase (2D)

2D Canvas simulation of a DNA replication fork: helicase unwinds the double helix, primase lays RNA primers, DNA polymerase III builds the leading strand continuously and the lagging strand as Okazaki fragments, and ligase seals the gaps.
