Question

Select all of the following that apply to the mRNA molecule immediately generated from a DNA template.

Question 12 options:

is longer than the gene from which it was copied

is shorter than the gene from which it was copied

is the same length as the gene from which it was copied

must be processed, in part by having a 5' cap added before becoming 'functional'

must be processed, in part by having a 3' poly A tail added before becoming 'functional'

can immediately move to a ribosome and direct protein synthesis

is generated in the nucleus

is generated in the cytoplasm

must have regions complementary to DNA exons spliced out before becoming 'functional'

is generated by the process of translation

will contain codons

will contain anticodons

will contain regions complementary to DNA introns but not exons

A)

J)

K)

will contain codons

L)

will contain anticodons

M)

will contain regions complementary to DNA introns but not exons

Explanation / Answer

mRNA is shorter than the gene which it is copied must be processed 5 prime capping is necessary before functioning must be processed should contain 3 prime poly a tail before adding can be moved to ribosomes to synthesize the proteins it is generated inside the nucleus will contain the codons will contain regions complementary to the DNA introns but not exons
