Question

12. How do mutations in the DNA sequence change prolelns a. by changing amino acid sequences b. by changing the mRNA transcript c. by changing how the proteins function d. none of these e by changing both the amino acid sequences and the mRNA transcript 13. What is a change in the DNA nucleotide sequence called? a. an anti-codon b. translation c. tRNA d. transformation e. mutation 14. What types of genetic information are encoded by DNA? a. order of amino acids in a protein b. when a specific protein is made c. how much of a protein is made d. just proteins e. when a specific protein is made, order of amino acids in a protein, and how much protein is made 15. What determines how proteins fold into their three-dimensional shape? order of amino acids a. b. order of DNA base-pairing c. cytoplasmic water levels d. e. number of genes in the DNA how many receptors are present on the cell surface 16. If all 18 nucleotides in a particular sequence are translated, how many amino acids would be in the polypeptide? a. 2 b. 3 c. 4 d. 5 e. 17. The process of transcription requires a. transfer RNA b. DNA c. messenger RNA d. DNA polymerase e. all of these

Explanation / Answer

12. Correct answer:- (e) by Changing both the amino acid sequence and the mRNA transcript.
Explanation- mutation is the permanent alteration of the nucleotide sequence of the genome of an organism.
- it causes chanege in mRNA transcript and amino acid sequence.

13. Correct answer:- (e) mutation
Explanation:- mutation is the permanent alteration of the nucleotide sequence of the genome of an organism.

14. Correct answer:- (e) when a specific protein is made, order of amino acid in a protein and how much protein is made.
Explanation- DNA encode regulation of protein formation.

15. Correct answer:- (b) order of DNA base pairing
Explanation:- chemical bond formation occurs between the nitrogenous base and three dimensional shape is formed.

16. Correct answer:- (e) 6
Explanation:- A codon is a triplet.

17. Correct answer:- (e) all of these
Explanation- transcription is the formation of mRNA from DNA molecules.
- transcription Require- DNA polymerase, mRNA, tRNA.
