How does the structure of RNA differ from that of DNA in terms of sugar molecules?

RNA contains ribose, while DNA contains deoxyribose.

RNA contains deoxyribose, while DNA contains ribose.

Both RNA and DNA contain ribose.

Both RNA and DNA contain deoxyribose.

Analyze the impact of a mutation that changes an Adenine to a Thymine in a DNA sequence.

It may result in a different amino acid being incorporated into a protein.

It will always result in a non-functional protein.

It will have no effect on the protein produced.

It will always cause a frameshift mutation.

How does complementary base pairing facilitate the process of transcription?

It allows RNA polymerase to synthesize mRNA from the DNA template.

It ensures that the mRNA is an exact copy of the DNA.

It prevents errors during DNA replication.

What is the significance of the double helix structure of DNA in terms of genetic stability?

It provides a mechanism for error correction during replication.

It makes the DNA more flexible.

It allows for easy access to genetic information.

It makes the DNA more susceptible to mutations.

Compare and contrast the roles of DNA and RNA in protein synthesis.

DNA carries the genetic code, while RNA translates the code into proteins.

DNA is involved in transcription, while RNA is involved in translation.

Evaluate the consequences of a substitution mutation in the DNA sequence on the resulting protein.

It may result in a different amino acid being incorporated into the protein.

It will always result in a non-functional protein.

It will have no effect on the protein produced.

It will always cause a frameshift mutation.

What is the role of RNA polymerase during transcription?

It synthesizes a complementary RNA strand from a DNA template.

It unwinds the DNA double helix.

It splices introns from the pre-mRNA.

It transports mRNA to the ribosome.

What 3 things make up a nucleotide?

Sugar, Phosphate, Nitrogen Base

What is the difference between DNA and RNA

DNA contains thymine and RNA contains uracil

DNA has uracil and RNA has thymine

DNA is involved in transcription and RNA is involved in translation

DNA is made of nucleotides and RNA is not
