Does prokaryotic cells use DNA to code genetic information?
Yes. With the exception of some viruses which use RNA, all organisms on Earth code their genetic information on DNA. In some cases prokaryotes use a modified genetic code where a few codons will have different meanings than they do in eukaryotes, but broadly speaking, the DNA genetic code is a universal feature of all known organisms.
What does the code for genetic information change to during translation?
Nucleic Acids to Amino Acids--APEX
What are the change in the genetic code called that occur during DNA replication?
Mutation
How do bacteria exchange ganetic information?
Bacteria change genetic information with each through conjugation.
What is it called when there's a change in the gene?
The change of genetic information within an organism is known as a genetic mutation. It may also be refereed to as a change in allele frequencies when populations are examined.
What carries genetic code?
The genetic code of organisms is carried by the DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid. It is inherited by children from their parents.The genetic code is carried by the DNA molecule. The DNA molecule is the one that stores all genetic information for most living things.
What is the change of a cell's genetic information called?
A mutation.
What forms the genetics code?
DNA contains genetic information for cells
What does it mean when we say the genetic code is redundant and how does this redundancy contribute to the versatility and robustness of genetic information?
The genetic code is redundant, meaning that multiple codons can code for the same amino acid. This redundancy allows for flexibility in the genetic code, making it more versatile and robust. If a mutation occurs in the DNA, there is a higher chance that the resulting protein will still be functional due to the redundancy in the genetic code. This redundancy helps to ensure that genetic information can be accurately translated into proteins, even in the presence of errors or mutations.

What Material in nucleus that contains genetic information?
DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) contains the genetic information inside cells. The genetic information itself is a code of letters out of 4 possible nitrogen bases (A,T,G,C) eg. ACGTATGCATGGT. A gene is a portion of this code that has information for the construction of one type of protein chain.
What nucleic acid translates the genetic code that is contained within a cell RNA or DNA?
RNA translates the genetic code contained within a cell. DNA stores the genetic information but RNA is responsible for translating this information into proteins through a process called protein synthesis.
What are mistakes that can change genetic information called?
That would be mutation
Is mutation a change in the genetic information contained in a gene?
true
What is copying the code and does it relate to DNA?
Copying the code refers to replicating and duplicating the information in a programming language. In the context of DNA, copying the code refers to the process of DNA replication, where the information encoded in the DNA molecule is duplicated during cell division to pass on genetic information to the next generation. Both processes involve reproducing information accurately and efficiently.
What does it mean when we say the genetic code is redundant and how does this redundancy contribute to the complexity of genetic information?
The genetic code is redundant, meaning that multiple codons can code for the same amino acid. This redundancy allows for flexibility and error correction in protein synthesis. It also contributes to the complexity of genetic information by providing a buffer against mutations and increasing the efficiency of protein production.
