During fertilization, the pituitary gland secretes the follicle-stimulating hormone, which acts on the follicles and stimulates them to produce progesterone. The correct option is B.

<h3>What is fertilization?</h3>

Fertilization is defined as the union of two haploid gametes, the spermatozoa and the oocyte, also known as the egg, to restore the diploid state, form a zygote through the process of egg activation, and initiate a series of mitotic divisions that result in cell differentiation and embryo development.

During fertilization, the pituitary gland secretes the follicle-stimulating hormone, which acts on the follicles and stimulates them to produce progesterone.

If fertilization occurs, the fertilized egg attaches to the uterine lining and a placenta develops.

The fertilized egg then sends a signal to the ovary to continue secreting progesterone, which keeps the pregnancy going by keeping the uterus lining thick and nourishing for the developing embryo.

Thus, the correct option is B.

Identify all the amino acid-specifying codons where a point mutation (a single base change) could generate a nonsense codon.

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

Glutamic Acid (Glu): codons GAA, GAG

Glutamine (Gln): codons CAA, CAG.

Lysine (Lys): codons AAA, AAG, UCG

Serine (Ser): codons UCA, UCG

Leucine (Leu): codons UUG, UUA

Tyrosine (Tyr): codons UAC, UAU

Tryoptophan (Trp): codon UGG

Arginine (Arg): codons CGA, AGA

Glycine (Gly): codon GGA

Cysteine (Cys): codon UGU

Explanation:

Non sense codons are: UAA, UAG, UGA. Then following the genetic code (see attached file) a single base substitution in any of the codons indicated in the answer could generate a stop codon. This single base substitution might happen in the first, second or third base of the codon.
