Deamination of adenine results in the formation of hypoxanthine. Hypoxanthine selectively base pairs with cytosine. If this error is not corrected, what base pair can the original A·T base pair be converted to after cycles of DNA replication?a) G·C b) C·G c) T·A d) A·G
Why is it unfavorable for RNA molecules to adopt a double-helix structure similar to B-DNA? Because it is entropically unfavorable Because that would cause a steric clash between the sugars and nucleobases Because that would cause a steric clash between the 2' OHs of the sugars and the phosphates Because uracil can't form hydrogen bonds with any other nucleobases
