Red blood cells- anucleate -shorter life: multi nuclei/coenocytic = many nuclei (lg cells, has a nucleus : cytoplasm ratio. Inside nucleus is nucleolus: double membrane- inner/outer, major function is dna storage, dna replication, genetic info provided, dna organized. Rna primer/dna primase- enzyme puts rna molecules on lagging parental strand, then dna polymerase adds sections of replicated dna (okazaki fragments: dna ligase- cuts out rna fragments and connect okazaki fragments xi. Dna polymerase can t function at ends of dna because of telomeres. Junk dna - 90% that aren t translated, of these form transposons- segments that are able to move from 1 dna strand to another jumping genes - sometimes jumps from junk to active dna = mutations . 2% of all mutations.
