Answer:

-Reporter gene.

Explanation:

A reporter gene can be defined as a gene, which is used as an indicator to check uptake or expression of gene by a cell or organism. It is attached to a regulatory sequence of a different gene of interest in cell culture, bacteria, plants, or animals by the researchers and used to confer its expression in that organism or cell.

Gene for GFP (green fluorescent protein) is an example of reporter gene, due to which cells that express gene of interest emit green color under blue light.

As in given experiment, target gene (gene for rhodopsin) is attached with gene for GFP, it represents an example of reporter gene.

Thus, the correct answer is 'reporter gene.'

how can a mutaion affect protein synthesis by a cell? Do you think there are different consequence if it happens in a gamete cel
zmey [24]

Answer/Explanation:

A mutation alters the sequence of DNA. Therefore, the mRNA that is transcribed from the DNA has a different sequence.

This mRNA goes on to be read by the protein synthesis machinery in the cell. The protein synthesis machinery translates the sequence of the mRNA into an amino acid sequence, which makes up the protein.

If the sequence of the mRNA is different, due to a mutation in the DNA, then the cell will translate a different sequence into an amino acid. This alters the composition of the protein.

Mutations can be small, and affect only one amino acid, or they could be huge, and impact the entire protein.

Mutations have very different consequences in gametes vs non-gamete cells.

If a mutation occurs in a gamete, that means the mutation will be passed on to the next generation, as it is contained in the DNA in the egg or sperm that becomes fertilised to make a gamete.

However, mutations that occur in other cells are not passed on to the next generation. That does not mean they do not have effects. E.g. mutations in the skin caused by exposure to UV rays from the sun can contribute to cancer, but would not be passed on to the individual's children
