After an mRNA molecule is constructed from a DNA template, which TWO statements explain what happens next?
1) The mRNA molecule is edited and processed by removing introns and adding a cap and poly-A tail.
2) The mRNA molecule is transported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm through nuclear pores.
3) The mRNA molecule is transcribed back into DNA by the enzyme reverse transcriptase.
4) The mRNA molecule undergoes translation in the cytoplasm to synthesize a specific protein.
5) The mRNA molecule is degraded and recycled by cellular machinery.
The correct answer would be:
1) The mRNA molecule is edited and processed by removing introns and adding a cap and poly-A tail.
4) The mRNA molecule undergoes translation in the cytoplasm to synthesize a specific protein.
