| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Two proteins in the same cell perform different functions. This is because the two proteins are composed of | chains folded DIFFERENTLY and a DIFFERENT sequence of AMINO ACIDS |
| Some steps involved in DNA replication and protein sunthesis are summarized in the table below. PHOTO In which step would a mutation lead directly to the formation of an altered gene? | A. DNA is copied and each new cell gets a full copy. |
| A single gene mutation results from | a change in a base sequence in DNA |
| A change in the base subunit sequence during DNA replication can result in | variation within an organism |
| Synthesis of a defective protein may result from an alteration in | a base sequence code |
| An error in genetic information present in a body cell of a mammal would most likely produce _______ | a mutation that will affect the synthesis of a certain protein in the cell. |
