3 0

Generally an interpreter is needed to translate what a non English speaking person comes for any medical assistance. If a non English speaking patient comes without an interpreter then attempt should be made to find someone who can communicate. The medical office should hire a bilingual office staff to avoid such situation.
The medical assistant can ask someone to help communicate with the non English patient or advice the patient to come with an interpreter.

Which of the following statements about transposable genetic elements is NOT true?

Katarina [22]

Answer:

C. They all use a cut and paste mechanism.

Explanation:

DNA transposons can go through a replicative or nonreplicative transposition.

The replicative transposition uses a "copy and paste" mechanism that consists of the introduction of a new copy of the transposable element in a new position, meanwhile <u>the old copy remains in the original position</u>. This determines an increase in the number of copies.

The nonreplicative transposition uses a "cut and paste" mechanism that consists of the cleavage of the transposable element from its position and its <u>insertion in a new position</u> without increasing the number of copies.

Retrotransposons, on the other side, move through RNA intermediates generated by the reverse transcriptase.
