200
This is when you have changes in one or a few nucleotides.
What is point mutation?
200
This includes blocking gene expression.
What is RNA interference?

What is Messenger, Ribosomal and Transfer?
300
This is the decoding of an mRNA message into a protein.
What is translation?
300
These are what scientifically we call "Frame Shift" mutations. They move the bases and create problems.

What are mutagens?
400
These are the code for transcription factors that activate other genes that are important in cell development and differentiation.
What are homeobox genes?
500
This is how a cell makes RNA.
What is while in transcription, segments of DNA serve as templates to produce complementary RNA molecules.
500
Information is transferred from DNA to RNA to Protein.
What is the Central Dogma?
500
This is the condition in which an organism has extra sets of chromosomes.
What is polyploidy?
500
a set of master controlled genes.
