Explain how a mutagen can interfere with DNA replication to cause a mutation. Give two examples.
See AnswerQ: Give an example of a mutagen that can change cytosine to uracil
Give an example of a mutagen that can change cytosine to uracil. Which DNA repair system(s) would be able to repair this defect?
See AnswerQ: If a mutagen causes bases to be removed from nucleotides within DNA
If a mutagen causes bases to be removed from nucleotides within DNA, what repair system would fix this damage?
See AnswerQ: From an experimental point of view, is it better to use
From an experimental point of view, is it better to use haploid or diploid organisms for mutagen testing? Consider the Ames test when preparing your answer.
See AnswerQ: During an Ames test, bacteria were exposed to a potential mutagen
During an Ames test, bacteria were exposed to a potential mutagen. Also, as a control, another sample of bacteria was not exposed to the mutagen. In both cases, 10 million bacteria were plated and the...
