Punnett squares are used to show possible combinations of alleles or to predict the probability of a trait occurring in offsprin

g. An incomplete dominance cross is performed between a bird that is homozygous for red feathers and a bird that is homozygous for blue feathers. Purple offspring result. Then, two of the purple offspring are crossed. According to the Punnett square for this cross, how many of the offspring from the second cross will have a feather color that results from incomplete dominance?

<span>The answer is two. In incomplete dominance, heterozygotes have a trait that is intermediary between dominant and recessive homozygote. Let allele A be dominant and allele a recessive allele. The genotypes and phenotypes are as following: genotype: AA - phenotype: dominant homozygote with red feathers, genotype: Aa - heterozygote with purple feathers, and genotype: aa - recessive homozygote with blue feathers. In the cross of two purple birds (Aa x Aa), we have 1 bird with genotype AA and red feathers, 2 birds with genotype Aa and purple feathers, and 1 bird with genotype aa with blue feathers.</span>

<span>Red blood cells normally have a biconcave shape (picture a donut, but instead of a hole through the centre there's just a downward slope to the centre of the cell). If the cell takes on water, it will increase in size and the sloped areas will start to flatten out. If the cell loses water, it will begin to shrivel. Use these observations and your understanding of osmosis to answer the question!</span>

Question 4 (1 point)<br> Why are nonsense mutations rare?
Lostsunrise [7]

When a DNA sequence alteration results in a stop codon rather than a codon that specifies an amino acid, it is known as a nonsense mutation. This is rarely seen in 10% of patients with genetic disease.

<h3>What is nonsense mutation?</h3>

A nonsense mutation in a DNA sequence causes a premature stop codon, also known as a nonsense codon, in the transcribed mRNA as well as a shortened, ineffective, and typically nonfunctional protein product.

Because stop codons, also known as nonsense codons, signal the completion of protein synthesis rather than encoding for an amino acid, they are the source of the term "nonsense mutation."

Examples of illnesses for which nonsense mutations have been implicated as contributing factors include: Cystic fibrosis (produced by the G542X mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator); (CFTR) Beta-globin (thalassemia) Hurler disease.
