6. a.alternative splicing
Alternative splicing is a regulated process during gene expression that results in a single gene encoding for multiple proteins
7. D. amino acids
Proteins are composed of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds
8. D. protein folding
protein misfolding is a primary cause of Alzheimer's disease
9. B. amino acids are added to a growing polypeptide chain
During the elongation step of translation, amino acids are continually added forming a long chain bound together by peptide bonds.
10. C. R group
