Question

While mRNA strands are being created a sequence is sometimes miscopied. What is the best possible outcome for the cell should this take place?

The miscopied sequence codes for the same amino acids as the original sequence.
The new sequence creates a protein that serves a different function from the original.
The ribosomes will correct the mistake before the tRNA matches an amino acid to it.
The mRNA will only be used to create non-critical proteins for the cell.

Answer 1

@Eddie97 I need the answer fast.

Answer 2

Silent mutations are where the mRNA gets the wrong transcriptome but it still translates to the same amino acid in translation.

Answer 3

What do you think?

Answer 4

No clue!

Answer 5

Its talking about a silent mutation which is the least harmful mutation

Answer 6

I'm TERRIBLE at biology so I have NO clue. Srry

Answer 7

I'll narrow it down for you between A and C.

C is talking about nuclear transcription excision repair complex but the question is suggesting that the mRNA is already leaving for translation.

Answer 8

I still have NO cluee

Answer 9

im pretty sure its C

Answer 10

if its wrong im sorry

Answer 11

Gdeinward, what do you think?

Answer 12

but im pretty sure thats right

Answer 13

Ribosomes can't 'correct' the transcriptome

Answer 14

Like I said, there are only 3 solutions:

-silent mutations
-transcription excision repair
-Postranscriptional modification

Answer 15

Ok, I'm trying to see what Gdeinward thinks.

Answer 16

Im thinking C as well

Answer 17

Ok, thank you every one....idk who to give the medal to... :\

Answer 18

im down for it XDXD

Answer 19

Idk tho....like all you helped

Answer 20

Eh you can go for it but ribosomes don't carry the function to repair just saying..

Answer 21

give it to the person with the least medals

Answer 22

lol that would be u eddie

Answer 23

Ok. Eddie gets the medal. Sorry justjm

Answer 24

yay XD
