Why is it more important to check for Error during DNA replication and then during protein synthesis?

Because during replication a new copy of the DNA is made form which proteins will eventually be synthesized. Replication copies the mistake, synthesis merely empresses it.

Protein synthesis refers to the process whereby the the biological cells generate the new proteins.


What is the difference between mitosis and protein synthesis?

Well, literally, DNA replication is DNA copying itself, and protein synthesis is producing protein molecules according to the DNA sequences.DNA replication occurs only once in each cell generation during the S phase of the cell cycle, you might know, but the protein synthesis can occur as many times as needed.As you know, the DNA is double-stranded. In the replication, the strands are separated creating replication fork. However, in protein synthesis, the strands are separated and mRNA is transcribed by RNA polymerase.Protein is synthesized by special molecules known as RNA molecules(mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA), which are not needed in DNA replication.Protein synthesis requires amino acids, whereas DNA replication requires Nucleic acids.


The stage of the cell cycle when DNA replication occurs is?
