Find the complementary DNA strand. (Remember the base pairing: A-T and C-G)
Put the steps of DNA replication in order.
End with 2 DNA strands, each strand has one original and one new strand
Polymerase add nucleotides
DNA helicase unwinds the DNA
Ligase glues the fragments on the lagging strand

Which of the following describes a mutation in a parent that could change the phenotype of its future offspring?
All corn plants contain the ZmLA1 gene. Some corn plants contain a certain mutation in the ZmLA1 gene. The graph below shows the amount of ZmLA1 RNA produced in plants with the normal gene and in plants with the mutated gene.
Based on the graph, what most likely happens in corn plant cells as a direct result of the mutated gene?
