You have identified a previously unknown human gene that appears to have a role in autism. It is similar enough in DNA sequence

to a known mouse gene that you believe that the two genes may be evolutionarily related. You determine and compare the DNA sequences, the predicted mRNA sequences, and the predicted amino acid sequences corresponding to the two genes. You would expect to find the greatest sequence similarity from comparisons of the two:
a. DNA sequences (13.6%)
  b. mRNA sequences (3.9%)
  c. Amino acid sequences (51.5%)
  d. All three comparisons are likely to show the same degree of sequence similarity (31.0%)

Answer:

Amino acid sequences

Explanation:

The proteins perform the vast majority of functions in the cells. If a gene between a human and a mouse is evolutionarily related, it means that the function they do in the cell is quite similar in both species. This is the reason why the amino acid sequence would be the most similar.

In addition, there might be certain mutations in the DNA and therefore in the RNA between this 2 sequences that encode to the same amino acid sequence. More specifically speaking, there are more than one codon that encode to the same aminoacid. Thus, 2 different DNA/RNA sequence can give the same aminoacid sequence.

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Disease

Explanation:

Disease:

  • An abnormality or deviation from normal structure and function of the mind or the body is termed as a disease.
  • This can include a physical or physiological injury or malfunction.
  • A disease exhibits symptoms or manifestations that can be used to identify it. Therefore, the normal structure and function must also be studied.
  • The scientific study of diseases is called pathology. This includes investigating the cause or etiology of the disease as well as its pathogenesis, treatment and prognosis.

Which alleged father has a DNA fragment that matches the size of one of the child's DNA fragments and is, therefore, likely the
Serga [27]

Answer:

Alleged father #2

Explanation:

Normally alleged father #2 has in common with the child the gene that every man would, this would not be evidence that he is the father. But, in the case of finding a really strange trait with the kid that would not be coincidence, in that case it would be a high probability of paternity.  This genes need to be analyzed in the nucleus of the cells where the units of heritage are present making us unique individuals according to the infinite combinations that ca be present in our DNA.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!
vovangra [49]
1. The correct answer is; are body cells is going to shrink. <span>Salty seawater is a hyperosmotic solution, meaning that it has more solutes than the cell inside. The water will move (from the cell) via osmosis in order for the solutions to reach equilibrium. Also, salty solution exerts more pressure on the of the cell, so the cell will shrink.</span>
<span>
2. The correct answer cells in the fish will stay the same size. This will occur because both solutions, freshwater lake and river have similar (or equal) solute concentrations. Those solutions are called isosmotic. There is no movement of water or the solutes, so the cell stays the same.</span>

3. The correct answer is to swell. <span>This will happen because sea star egg has the same solute concentration as its first environment-ocean meaning that this solution is hyperosmotic comparing to the lake (ocean is saltier than the lake, it has more solutes). When you put the sea star egg in the lake, the water from the lake will move (via osmosis) into the egg, to reach equilibrium. Water will cause the cell to swell.</span>

Which of the following channels would not be expected to generate a change in voltage by movement of its substrate across the me
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

(a) an aquaporin  

Explanation:

An aquaporin is a water channel which forms a pore in  the cell membrane and facilitates the movement of water. Aquaporin is an integral membrane protein (permanently attached to the membrane) that enables the in and out flow of the water. This channel also prevents the passage of ions and other solutes, so it cannot change the voltage. There are four types of aquaporins, and they are mostly found in the kidney with the function of water reabsorption.
