Answer:

All proteins would be translated in the cytoplasm

Explanation:

The signal recognition particle (SRP) is a cytoplasmic RNA-protein (ribonucleoprotein) complex whose primary role is to target signal peptide‐bearing proteins to the plasma membrane in prokaryotes and to the endoplasmic reticulum in eukaryotes. In eukaryotic organisms, SRP binds to the signal sequence of the protein when the growing polypeptide chain emerges from the ribosome in the cytoplasm. This binding is key because it results in a slowing of translation, a mechanism known as elongation arrest. Therefore, without a functional SRP, elongation arrest would not occur and proteins would be translated on free ribosomes in the cytoplasm.

Which is an example of a substitution mutation?
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

CAT - GGC - TAC mutates to CAT - GGC - TAG

Explanation:

Changes occur in the nucleotide sequence of the DNA molecule. These changes referred to as MUTATION are usually due mistakes during DNA replication or induced by mutagens (mutation-causing substances). Mutation can be of different types depending on the kind of change that occured to the nucleotide sequence. Based on this question, one of the mutation types is SUBSTITUTION MUTATION.

Substitution mutation is a kind of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base replaces another in the sequence.

The option that suits an example of substitution mutation is: CAT - GGC - TAC mutates to CAT - GGC - TAG because Guanine nucleotide replaces Cytosine nucleotide in the third CODON i.e. TAC becomes TAG.
