What else can I help you with?
Is DNA polymerase able to proofread the DNA sequence?
Yes, DNA polymerase has proofreading activity, which allows it to correct mistakes during DNA replication. This helps maintain the accuracy of the DNA sequence.
When in the replication process is DNA most vulnerable to mutations?
DNA is most vulnerable to mutations during the replication process, specifically during the DNA synthesis stage when mistakes can be made by the DNA polymerase enzyme. Mutations can also occur during exposure to external factors such as radiation or chemicals that can damage the DNA.
Does DNA replication happen before or during Meiosis?
It happens during interphase of the cell cycle.
What causes random mistakes to occur in a DNA sequence?
There is a reason why random mistakes occur. The genes themselves carry a code for mutation which is expressed randomly without generational continuity. It may be considered recessive in the extreme. The ability for random mutation to "test out" new designs is at the very core of Darwinian evolution. These mistakes are supposed to happen. If they did not happen we would not be sharing this very info with each other as we would not exist.
What does cell makes a mistakes and copy in its DNA?
nucleotides
Is it common for mistakes to occur during DNA replication?
Yes, it is common for mistakes to occur during DNA replication. These mistakes are known as mutations and can lead to genetic variations.
Is DNA polymerase able to proofread the DNA sequence?
Yes, DNA polymerase has proofreading activity, which allows it to correct mistakes during DNA replication. This helps maintain the accuracy of the DNA sequence.
What happen during transcription?
mRNA is produced from the DNA.
When in the replication process is DNA most vulnerable to mutations?
DNA is most vulnerable to mutations during the replication process, specifically during the DNA synthesis stage when mistakes can be made by the DNA polymerase enzyme. Mutations can also occur during exposure to external factors such as radiation or chemicals that can damage the DNA.
What if mistakes occur during cell division?
If mistakes occur during cell division, they can lead to mutations in DNA, potentially causing genetic disorders or cancer. The cell's repair mechanisms can sometimes correct these mistakes, but if they persist, they can be passed on to daughter cells. Monitoring and regulating cell division is crucial to prevent the accumulation of such errors.
How can DNA molecues be copied?
During Mitosis and Meiosis DNA is replicated in order to ensure that both or all 4 of the daughter cells gets instructions (aka DNA). I believe the coping is done by Ribosomes. Make shure first.
How UV rays cause skin cancer?
The UV rays can cause mistakes to happen in the DNA code of the skin cells. A faulty DNA instruction can then lead to that cell becoming "wild" and cancerous.
Does DNA replication happen before or during Meiosis?
It happens during interphase of the cell cycle.
Sometimes random mistakes occur in a DNA sequence. These mistakes are referred to as .?
amalgams
What happen during s phase of cell cycle?
cell duplicates its DNA
What enzymes build DNA?
Enzymes involved in DNA replication include DNA polymerase, helicase, primase, ligase, and topoisomerase. These enzymes work together to unwind the DNA helix, synthesize new DNA strands, and repair any mistakes that may occur during the process.
What happen in the interface during cell division?
the cell makes its DNA split in two
