Answer:
DNA replication goes in the 5' to 3' direction because DNA polymerase acts on the 3'-OH of the existing strand for adding free nucleotides. ... Incoming dNTP are attached to the strand being synthesized (using the energy from its triphosphate group) only after the prior nucleotide is proofread by DNA polymerase.
