Comparison of mitochondrial RNA with the genome sequence of mitochondria demonstrated that
A)at least some of the RNA had insertions and deletions of uracil residues
B)there are no differences in the sequences of the RNA compared to the genomic DNA from which it was transcribed.
C)the proteins necessary for translation are coded for in the mitochondrial genome.
D)translation is initiated in mitochondria using only the AUG codon.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mitochondrial RNA editing can involve the insertion and deletion of uracil residues, which leads to differences between the RNA and the mitochondrial DNA sequence.
