12. You are studying a protein and have sequenced the A. is too short.
DNA that encodes it. There is also a mutant version of
the protein that does not function correctly. When you
transcribe the DNA to obtain the mRNA sequence, you
find that at one position, there has been a mutation
from 5'UGC 3' to 5'UGA 3'. Using the genetic code, you
determine that this mutant protein
A. is too short.
B. has the amino acid Trp in place of the amino acid
Cys.
C. is too long.
D. has the amino acid Ser in place of the amino acid
Arg.
13. The primary pre-mRNA transcript is much longer than B. Introns have not

be explained by which of the following? from the transcript
A. The 5' cap has not yet been added to the transcript
B. Introns have not yet been removed from the tran-
script
C. Exons have not yet been added to the transcript
D. The poly-A tail is still on the primary transcript
