Which risk escalates greatly at a DNA replication fork lacking primase?

💡 Explanation

Unstable single-strand regions develop because DNA Polymerase requires a primer to initiate replication via phosphodiester bond formation rather than de novo synthesis. Replication stalling does eventually occur; therefore the answer is B, rather than decreased Okazaki fragments because these are consequences.
