2A mutation prevents a gene from being transcribed into an mRNA. The mutation most likely disrupts
- Athe promoter
- Bthe terminator
- Cthe start codon
- Dthe stop codon
- Eboth a and c
3The functional product of a structural gene is

- BmRNA
- CrRNA
- Da polypeptide
- Ea, b, and c.
4Which of the following is not a property of the genetic code?
- AIt specifies the amino acids within a polypeptide
- BIt is composed of codons, which are specific sequences of three bases.
- CIt has a start codon, which specifies the starting point for polypeptide synthesis.
- DIt has stop codons, which specify the end of polypeptide synthesis,
- EIt determines the rate of transcription.
5If a eukaryotic mRNA failed to have a cap attached to it 5' end, what would the negative consequence(s) be?
- AThe mRNA would not properly exit the nucleus
- BThe mRNA would not properly bind to a ribosome
- CThe mRMA would not receive a Poly A tail.
