Which of the Following Is an Advantage of Using RNA

question 39

Multiple Choice

Which of the following is an advantage of using RNA primers during initiation of a strand in replication?

• A)Using primers may decrease mistakes; such errors as mismatched bases are more likely during initiation than elongation, and the use of a short, removable RNA segment avoids inclusion of mismatched bases.
• B)Using primers slows down the process of replication, which increases accuracy of complementary base pairing.
• C)The RNA of the primers is more stable.
• D)The RNA of the primers is more likely to lead to changes in base sequence, which enhances the rate of mutation and thus evolution.
• E)The RNA of the primers allows more efficient packing of the chromosomes after its removal.
