First, we will elaborate the terms that are being used.

Heterozygous:
This means that the organism has a set of alleles which are different from one another. One copy may be for the dominant trait and the other for the recessive one.

Homozygous: 
The organism has two copies of the same allele

Dominant:
An allele that will express itself even if only one copy of it is present. These are usually represented by capital letters.

Recessive:
An allele that requires both copies to be expressed. These are usually represented by lower-case letters.


A: Heterozygous

B: homozygous recessive

C: Homozygous dominant

D: Homozygous recessive

E: Homozygous dominant

Which of the following sequences shows a frameshift mutation compared to the wild-type mRNA sequence?
Butoxors [25]

Option C:

B. wild-type 5-AUGCAUACAUUGGAGUGA-3 mutant 5'-AUGCAUACAUCUGGAGUGA- 3' 

Explanation:

A frameshift mutation is a genetic mutation such that the triplet nature of gene expression by codons, the insertion or deletion occurs in such as way that it alters the complete sequence of 3 codon sets and can change the reading frame, resulting in a completely different translation from the original.

As it is pertinent to understanding that all genes are normally translated in sets of 3 codons, which typically describes and explain a unique amino acid sequence. Thus, if a frame shift mutation occurs, it can affect many amino acid sequences and finally the entire protein.  

If we look at option B:

wild-type 5-AUG   CAU  ACA  UUG  GAG  UGA-3  

mutant 5’-    AUG   CAU  ACA  UCU  GGA  GUG  A-3’  

An insertion of a base Uracil showed at the end of 3rd codon which affected and altered the whole sequence of codon triplets. This changed all next codons and finally all next amino acids will be altered.

Which two organisms in the food web are primary consumers? fox and rabbit rabbit and grasshopper shrew and snake snake and fox
Lorico [155]

The correct answer is B. Rabbit and grasshopper

Explanation:

In ecosystems, primary consumers refer to organisms that eat producers, which are in the first level and include plants as they produce their own energy. Due to this, primary producers include mainly herbivore animals such as cows, goats, sheep, etc. Moreover, primary consumers are the prey of other animals, which are known as secondary consumers. In the image presented, the primary consumers include the grasshopper and the rabbit because the arrows indicate they feed exclusively on grass, which is the producer of this food web.

How does respiration in plants and animals differ
Katena32 [7]
Plants do not breathe, they only respire. No such respiratory organ os present in plants. The carbon dioxide produced in animals during respiration is released to the atmosphere, whereas the carbondioxide produced during plant respiration may be used by the plant for carrying out photosynthesis.
