Picture is only attached as reference. How does the model attached show DNA Replication?What is the importance of DNA Replication?What will happen if there will be an error during the DNA Replication Process?
What is the enzyme used to create DNA complementary to mature mRNA? Group of answer choices ligase topoisomerase DNA polymerase reverse transcriptase RNA polymerase transposase
DNA polymerase occasionally incorporates the wrong nucleotide during DNA replication. If left unrepaired, the base-pair mismatch that results will lead to mutation in the next replication. As part of a template strand, the incorporated wrong base will direct the incorporation of a base complementary to itself, so the bases on both strands of the DNA at that position will now be different from what they were before the mismatch event. The MER-minus strain of yeast does not have a functional mismatch excision repair system, but it has normal base excision repair and nucleotide excision repair systems. Which of the following statements is correct about differences in the mutation spectrum between MER-minus and wildtype yeast? More than one answer is correct. Options: More point mutations will arise in MER-minus yeast. Fewer point mutations will arise in MER-minus yeast as compared with wildtype. Of the total point mutations that…
Decide whether the statement is TRUE OR FALSE. Justify your answer. Introns are coding regions of the DNA that becomes part of the mature mRNA after splicing. A eukaryotic gene can be expressed without undergoing transcription. Eukaryotic translation occur in the cytoplasm. The newly synthesized DNA strand during replication was made from the 5’ to 3’ direction. The enzyme helicase unzips a double-stranded DNA by breaking the ionic bond between base pairs.

What specifically will happen if DNA polymerase is inaccurate during DNA synthesis? Explain how this inaccuracy might affect the organism.
Translesion synthesis (TLS) polymerase zeta (ζ) is capable of accurately reading through 6,4-photoproducts (cytotoxic damage). If this protein is non-functional: a different TLS polymerase will accurately read through the DNA lesion. a different TLS polymerase will inaccurately read through the DNA lesion resulting in increased mutational frequency. the replicative polymerase will inaccurately read through the DNA damage. DNA polymerase alpha (α) will be recruited to synthesize a primer across the DNA damage. the DNA lesion cannot be bypassed and will result in double stranded DNA breaks.
