Students are modeling mRNA during the process of protein synthesis. Which answer choice correctly describes the model of the mRNA being transcribed?

• The mRNA strand is complementary to the DNA strand, however uracil instead of adenine is paired with thymine

• The mRNA strand is complementary to the DNA strand, however uracil instead of thymine is paired with adenine

• The mRNA strand is an exact copy of the DNA template strand, however uracil instead of adenine is paired with thymine

• The mRNA strand is an exact copy of the DNA template strand, however uracil instead of thymine is paired with adenine

What is the purpose of transcription and translation?

• to make ribosomes

• to make more DNA

• to make proteins (protein synthesis)

A student used poster board to construct this model of DNA. Which statement most accurately describes this model of DNA?

• The model is inaccurate because the base pairs are incorrect

• The model is accurate because it contains correctly paired bases

• The model is accurate because it shows each base splitting to form a double helix

• The model is inaccurate because some typical bases in DNA are missing
