When are mutations likely to occur?
A base sequence in a DNA molecule is changed
What would most likely happen if there is a change in the base sequence of this molecule?
B. The amino acid sequence may be altered during protein synthesis.
What change in DNA base sequence that codes for a respitory protein will most likely cause?
a change in the sequence of amino acids. -P
Is change in the order of DNA bases that code for a respiratory protein will most likely cause?
a change in the sequence of amino acids determined by a gene
What event in transcription initiation likely occurs last?
The binding of RNA polymerase to the promoter sequence is the likely event that occurs last in transcription initiation. This binding allows for the initiation of RNA synthesis and the subsequent elongation of the RNA molecule.

What will most likely happen if there is a change in the first three subunits on the upper strand of a molecule?
A Portion of Molecule 2 may be different

A medical test indicates that a patient has a defective protein. This condition is most likely due to a change in the directions coded in the?
sequence of subunits in DNA.

Which molecule is more likely to exist in nature a molecule of CH3 or a molecule of CH4 Explain?
The molecule of methane is more stable, carbon is tetravalent.
When a polar molecule causes a charge redistribution in a nonpolar molecule what are the molecules of the mixture most likely experiencing?
When a polar molecule causes a charge redistribution in a nonpolar molecule, the molecules of the mixture most likely experiencing dipole-induced dipole interactions
What is the smallest change in DNA that causes a protein to change.?
A single change in the primary sequence of bases can result in complete misfolding of proteins. The most likely serious change would be addition or deletion of a base, a substitution would be less likey to be as serious but can also render a protein inactive.
What would Translation of the DNA sequence AAGCTGGGA would result in?
This would result in a frameshift mutation. This would cause the protein, after translation, to be truncated and would most likely be non-functional. This is due to a change in the amino acid sequence and would stop the protein from forming the correct secondary and tertiary structures due to a change in the electrostatic/ hydrophobic/ h-bonding etc. parameters of the protein
