Question

8. Which of these is the direct result of an error in the transcription of a DNA

Answer 1

Answer:

D. RNA sequence is incorrect.

Explanation:

Genome editing can be defined as a high-tech process which avail scientists the opportunity or ability to remove (delete), replace and insert Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) sequence in a living organism such as bacterias, animals, plants etc in order to correct a genetic disorder and to improve on their physical and chemical conditions.

Transcription can be defined as a process which typically involves re-writing the informations contained within a Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) into a Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) by enzyme RNA polymerase.

When a RNA sequence is incorrect, it leads to an error in the transcription of a DNA nucleotide.

This ultimately implies that, an error in the transcription of a DNA nucleotide is the direct result of an incorrect codon sequence (RNA nucleotides).
