While some mutations can benefit an organism, others are harmful and can lead to cancer. So the mutation which lead to cancer is the mutation of genes.

And there are three kinds and three types of genes that contribute to cancer.

These are the genes that normally signal cells to grow.

The first type is called oncogenes. These are the genes that normally signal cells to grow. And when oncogene is mutated, the cell would abnormally grow and cause cancer.

Use the double-stranded DNA molecule below to answer the following questions. The first pair of nucleotides (bolded) contains th
krok68 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is 2. 5'-AUGUCAGGUACGCCACAU-3'

Explanation:

The template strand for transcription is 3'-TACAGTCCATGCGGTGTA-5 and RNA polymerase will add complementary mRNA sequence against this strand in the opposite direction i.e., 5' to 3' direction.

In RNA, A(adenine) makes complementary base pairing with U(uracil), not with T(thymine) and the rest of the base-pairing is same as in DNA. Therefore the correct mRNA produced from the transcription of this DNA molecule by the help of RNA polymerase is 5'-AUGUCAGGUACGCCACAU-3'.

Then this mRNA sequence will be used by ribosomes to synthesize proteins during the translation process.
