The model shows how the enzyme lactase is produced by a cell. Based on the model, which of the following leads to the production of lactase?

DNA is transcribed to form mRNA, and then mRNA is translated.

ATP is used to form lactase from glucose.

Lactase is directly replicated from DNA using ATP.

DNA is translated to form a dairy sugar, and then mRNA is transcribed.

A student created a model of a DNA sequence and its mRNA transcript, as shown. Another student found a mistake in the model. Select from the drop-down menus to complete the sentence describing the correction that should be made to the model.

Thymine nucleotides in mRNA should be replaced with Uracil

Thymine nucleotides in mRNA should be replaced with Adenine

Cytosine nucleotides in mRNA should be replaced with Uracil

Cytosine nucleotides in mRNA should be replaced with Guanine

Why is DNA important?

it serves as the blueprint for traits of all living things

it is very small and very complicated

because we eat it every day for energy

Which statement is describing the process of protein synthesis?

DNA is copied into mRNA which is translated into protein
