Answer:
Protein is also used for growth and repair. Amid all these necessary functions, proteins also hold the potential to serve as a metabolic fuel source. Proteins are not stored for later use, so excess proteins must be converted into glucose or triglycerides, and used to supply energy or build energy reserves.
Explanation:
Compare and contrast a frameshift mutation and a single nucleotide substitution mutation in a DNA sequence encoding a protein. How many nucleotides would be inserted or deleted in each? How many amino acids in the protein sequence would be altered in each?
Answer :
Option A is your answer
Answer: Information stored in DNA must be translated into functional products.
Explanation: DNA is a short form of deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA is a type of nucleic acid. There are two types of nucleic acids: DNA and RNA (ribonucleic acid).
DNA is a double-stranded helical molecule that contains the complete information for the synthesis of a functional gene product. The functional gene product is usually a protein.
DNA is first copied into a messenger RNA (mRNA) in a process known as transcription. This process is catalyzed by the enzyme RNA polymerase. This process occurs in the nucleus.
The mRNA leaves the nucleus to the ribosome where it is used to produce a protein. This process is called translation and occurs in the ribosome. The protein is the functional product that expresses its function in the organism.
