Nothing too horrible will occur if RNA or proteins are messed up. Likely the protein will have no biological function. However, if there is a mistake in DNA, then cell death or even cancer can occur.

Why is it more important to check for errors during DNA replication than during translation?

(APEX) An error in translation affects only one cell. Hope this helps ;)


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

It is more important to check for errors during DNA replication because errors in DNA can be passed on to future generations, leading to genetic mutations and potential diseases. In contrast, errors during protein synthesis can be corrected by the cell's quality control mechanisms to prevent the production of faulty proteins.


Why are transcription and translation two separate but necessary steps for protein synthesis?

The three types of RNA are all needed to perform protein synthesis.mRNA is needed to bring the code that is needed to be translated. Once transcribed within the nucleus, it moves out to the cytoplasm to be translated.tRNA is needed to bring the anticodon and amino acid to be combined to form proteins. It attaches to the codon on the mRNA.rRNA, combined with proteins forms the two parts of the ribosomes, which is where the tRNA and mRNA attach to begin translation.


The substitution of one base for another during DNA replication is an example of?

Mutation occurs where one DNA nucleotide base is changed in the process of DNA replication. These mutations may or may not cause genetic disorders or other observable changes in the organism, but they play a huge role in evolution, cancer, and immune system development.


What is it called when DNA replication messes up?

One ma be born with physical, and or mental illness. Such as fragile X syndrome.

What is a change in DNA sequence caused by a mistake in DNA replication or exposure to radiation or chemicals called?

A change in DNA sequence caused by a mistake in DNA replication or exposure to radiation or chemicals is called a mutation. Mutations can lead to variations in genes and can sometimes result in negative effects on an organism's traits or health.

Why is DNA replication semi-conserbribe?

I think there is a mistake in the question. The DNA replication is said to be semi-conservative because during DNA replication one stand will be parental and the other will be newly formed. This happens due to the complimentary base pairing.
