Here are the answers to the questions provided:
1. **What is the final product of gene transcription and translation?**
- **Proteins**
2. **Which of the following is a correct difference between DNA and RNA?**
- **DNA is double stranded, RNA is single stranded**
- (Note: The option may seem misleading; DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose and RNA contains ribose. DNA contains thymine, and RNA contains uracil. Ensure to verify the provided options.)
3. **If a DNA strand with the following sequence was transcribed to RNA, what would be the resulting strand?**
- **UGC AUC GGU**
- (Transcription converts the DNA sequence to RNA by replacing thymine (T) with uracil (U). The DNA sequence ACG TAG CCA would yield UGC AUC GGU in RNA.)
4. **Codons are triplets of DNA or RNA. If an RNA codon is CGA, what amino acid does it code for?**
- **Arg**
- (CGA codes for Arginine in the genetic code.)
5. **What could be a possible con/negative outcome of genetically modified organisms?**
- **Accidental damage to genes of wild organisms**
- (Genetically modified organisms can potentially outcompete natural species or hybridize with them, leading to unintended ecological consequences.)
If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, feel free to ask!
