What is the relationship between DNA polymerases and mutations in DNA?

Answer 1

DNA polymerases adds complimentary bases during DNA replication; however, there can be transcription errors. Mutations occur when changes in the genetic materialproduce abnormal genetic coding's. For instance, point mutation is defined by a change in just one base pair; because the bases cannot code for an amino acid, abnormal proteins are formed in place of normal ones.

Answer 2

DNA polymerases aid in the synthesis of a new DNA strand to the old strand during replication - adding base-by-base. If the wrong base is inserted into the daughter strand, then a mutation has occurred. Some polymerases have a "proofreading" ability and will recognize and fix the incorrectly-placed base-pairs, but some mutations may remain.

Answer 3

DNA polymerases are enzymes responsible for synthesizing new DNA strands during cell division. Mutations can arise during DNA replication if the polymerase makes an error and inserts the wrong nucleotide into the new DNA strand. Some DNA polymerases also have proofreading functions to correct these errors, but mutations can still occur, leading to genetic variation.

Answer 4

it is that you can tell me the facking answer cause i dont know it

Answer 5

Any changes to parts of the DNA which carry codes called genes, can cause mutations. These changes may not help the cell work properly.
