Suppose that the coding region of a gene contains 1,800 base pairs, with 570 in exon 1, 420 in exon 2, and 810 in exon 3 (not co

Each group of three <span>nucleobases</span>, when translated, will result in one amino acid. Considering that the coding region has 1800 base pairs, and only one side of the DNA strand is expressed, there will be only 1800 nucleobases that will take part on the gene expression and the protein translated will consist of 600 amino acids. It is only needed to divide 1800 by 3 (which is the number of nucleobases that will result in one amino acid). \frac{1800}{3}=600

Give an example of allopatric speciation.
vovikov84 [41]

Allopatric speciation is said to occur when two groups of organisms are separated by a physical or geographical barrier. Examples of such barriers are ocean, mountain range, rivers, etc.  A good example of allopatric speciation is Galapagos finch. Different species of this bird can be found in different islands at Galapos, which is located at Pacific Ocean off South America. The ocean is barrier that isolate the species from one another.

Descibe how changes to genes can affect the traits of organisms.
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Please find the explanation below.

Explanation:

Changes in the genetic sequence of a DNA is called MUTATION. A gene is a segment of the DNA that holds information for the synthesis of proteins, which are responsible for the observable traits in organisms. The expression of a gene brings about the synthesis of a protein that effects a particular trait in an organism. The gene is expressed in two major stages viz: transcription and translation.

Transcription involves production of an mRNA molecule using the encoded information in the genes of a DNA while translation is the synthesis of a protein using the mRNA as a template.

Since, the order of the sequence in a gene determines the order of the sequence in the mRNA which ultimately determines the order of sequence in the protein, a change in the gene of an organism will affect the observed trait of that organism.

More detailedly, a change in the gene will cause a change in the mRNA sequence during transcription. A change in the mRNA sequence will cause a change in the amino acid sequence during translation. A change in the amino acid sequence will affect the protein produced i.e. might not be functional or may not be produced at all. An affected protein will cause a trait in that organism to be affected.
