Explain the relationship between DNA, mRNA and tRNA? Justify why all three are necessary to the process of building a single protein molecule. (ANALYSIS) 2. Explain how the translation process knows when to begin and end the protein chain components. How do you justify mRNA having a “start” and “stop” codon on either end of the mRNA strand, even though they are not used to construct the protein? (ANALYSIS) 3. What would happen if a single base pair was changed to another base pair in the DNA coding? (SYNTHESIS) 4. How would a geneticist or a physician determine that a mutation had probably occurred? (SYNTHESIS) 5. Suppose that an entire codon is deleted from the mRNA being read for building a protein that removes excess cholesterol from the blood stream. What would be the outcome? (ANALYSIS)
