Question
what is the most likely outcome from dna mutation in an organism?
○ different proteins assembled
○ fewer daughter cells created
○ cell becomes exposed to radiation
○ daughter cells created
DNA contains the genetic code for protein - synthesis. A mutation in DNA can change the genetic instructions, leading to the assembly of different proteins. Radiation can cause DNA mutations (not the other way around as in the option). DNA mutations don't directly relate to the number of daughter cells created in a simple cause - and - effect way like protein - synthesis.
