"Third-base wobble allows some tRNAs to recognize more than one mRNA codon. Based on this chapter's discussion of wobble, what i

s the minimal number of tRNA molecules necessary to recognize the following amino acids?" "leucine"

Usimov [2.4K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

In case of the amino acid Leucine only, there are six different codons (TTA, TTG, CTT, CTC, CTA, CTG) that the tRNA can recognize and translate. Since there is only one codon that needs to be translated, only one tRNA is required.

Explanation:

The anti-codon on the tRNA recognizes the complementary bases on the codon, and because of the third-base wobble feature, there isn't a 1:1 ratio between the number of codons present and the anti-codons required.

Hope that answers the question. Have a great day!

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

There is no way to predict what the phenotypic ratio will be if we are not given the genotypes/phenotypes of the previous generation. However the concepts of genetic crossings can be explained.

In genetics, there is often genes controlling a certain characteristic in an organism, and when this organism mates, it passes on its genetic information to its offspring. This information can be mapped and we can predict what the future generation will look like given the genotypes and phenotypes of the generation before.

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

B. No

Explanation:

First, let's watch what it looks like when a population is not evolving. If a population is in a state called Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the frequencies of alleles, or gene versions, and genotypes, or sets of alleles, in that population will stay the same over generations (and will also satisfy the Hardy-Weinberg equation). Formally, evolution is a change in allele frequencies in a population over a very long period of time, so a population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is not evolving.

What could prevent sperm from reaching and fertillizing an egg?
Aleks04 [339]
Numerous barriers can prevent sperm from reaching and fertilizing the egg, this can be that the Sperm may be defected, or lack the required number of mitochondria needed to help move the sperm. Also, if sperm had already fertilized the egg, there is a change that takes place to the membrane surrounding the egg preventing further sperm from fertilizing.
