• Deletion

• Spontaneous

• Point

Sometimes, during replication, nucleotide pairs are added or lost. These errors have serious effects on the protein that is supposed to be created. They can affect the ordering of the codon sequence, causing the creation of a non-functional protein. What type of mutation do these insertions or deletions lead to?

• An addition mutation

• A deletion mutation

• A frameshift mutation

• A point mutation

Choose the nucleotide sequence of the RNA strand that would be complementary to the following strand: 
GTAGTCA

• UATUAGA
• ACGACTG
• CAUCAGU
• CATCAGT

Identify the correct sequence of molecules, as a gene goes from coded information in the nucleus, to the product the cell wants to make at the ribosome.

• DNA -> messenger RNA -> transfer RNA -> protein

• DNA -> transfer RNA -> messenger RNA -> protein

• DNA -> transfer RNA -> protein -> messenger RNA

• Protein -> messenger RNA -> transfer RNA -> DNA
