Protein Sythesis

Protein Sythesis. The Genome of a Eukaryotic Cell is within the nucleus. Proteins are synthesized in the cytoplasm . DNA does not leave the nucleus. Why? 1) To dangerous! If distorted, cleaved, or damaged ? useless Possible death of organism 2) Proteins required in large amounts

5.6 - MUTATIONS

5.6 - MUTATIONS mutations (inherited DNA sequence errors) are mostly deleterious but can be beneficial and, indeed, are the engine of evolution through natural selection eukaryotic (diploid) organisms can delay the consequences of mutations by having a copy of the gene to compensate
