The information on the strand changes. The mass of the strand changes. The organism dies. The organism thrives.
I gave my students this multiple choice question: What ALWAYS happens when the nucleotides in a strand of DNA is rearranged?

Only one answer is correct among these 4 choices:
- The information on the strand changes.
- The mass of the strand changes.
- The organism dies.
- The organism thrives.

Could you tell me which one is correct?
