The process of mRNA making its negative image in order to copy the nucleotide sequence in the DNA is called?
If I understand your question, the answer is DNA synthesis. The nucleus contains DNA. That DNA is in different forms at different times during the cell cycle.
A DNA nucleotide is composed of?
A nucleotide is composed of a Nitrogenous base, a phosphate, and a ribose sugar.
A change in the nucleotide base sequence of gene or DNA molecule is called a what?
this is called a mutation
What is the difference between gene and nucleotide?
Gene is a collection of DNA which is made up of nucleotides.
Describe the components of dna?
There are 3 main chemical components of DNA. They are phosphate, a sugar called deoxyribose and a nitrogenous base (adenine, thymine, cytosine or guanine). These three components form a nucleotide. Deoxyribose contains 5 carbon atoms (1', 2', 3', 4', 5') in its structure. Within the nucleotide, the phosphate is bonded to the 5' carbon atom of deoxyribose and the nitrogenous base is bonded to the 1' carbon atom. These bonds are covalent. Each nucleotide is bonded to the next by a bond between the 3' carbon atom of the deoxyribose sugar of one nucleotide to the phosphate of the next. The nitrogenous base varies from one nucleotide to another. In DNA, two long chains of nucleotides are joined together in a double helix structure, often described as a twisted ladder. The two chains are held together by hydrogen bonding between the nitrogenous bases. Adenine on one side is always bonded to thymine on the other, and vice-verse, and the same goes for cytosine and guanine.

What happens a DNA nucleotide that contains guanine is accidentally substituted for a DNA nucleotide that contains thymine?
It makes mutation or it will get repaired by our repairing enzymes.
How does the sugar in a DNA nucleotide different from that of an RNA nucleotides?
The sugar in a DNA nucleotide contains one less oxygen atom.
Which part of a dna nucleotide contains a negative charge?
The DNA nucleotide consists of three parts: a phosphate group, a 5-carbon sugar, and a nitrogenous base. The portion of the nucleotide that contains a negative charge is the phosphate group.
Are the parts of a nucleotide?
A DNA nucleotide contains a deoxyribose sugar molecule, a phosphate group, and a nitrogen base.
Which part of a nucleotide contains a negative charge?
The DNA nucleotide consists of three parts: a phosphate group, a 5-carbon sugar, and a nitrogenous base. The portion of the nucleotide that contains a negative charge is the phosphate group.
