Question

Q1: Why is only one strand of DNA used as a template? Q2: If a mutation occurred within the promoter or terminator region, do you think it would affect the mRNA transcribed? Why or why not? Q3: The template strand of part of a gene has the base sequence TGAGAAGACCAGGGTTGT. What is the sequence of RNA transcribed from this DNA, assuming that RNA polymerase travels from left to right on this strand?
