Hydrogen bonds are important in DNA replication and transcription. They are relatively weak chemical bonds. Why is this a desirable feature for DNA?
Describe the effect (s) of changing (mutating) the promoter on the transcription of the DNA strand/gene the promoter controls.
What happens to protein synthesis if a nonsense codon is inserted into the gene?
Explain why a point mutation does not necessarily change the original amino acid sequence. (Explain silent mutations)
