Answer:
possible genotypes are - Rr Rr Rr Rr
Possible phenotypes - remember that R is dominant therefore all of the seeds with be round
Explanation:
Answer:
Viruses rely on the cells of other organisms to survive and reproduce, because they can't capture or store energy themselves
Addition or deletion of nucleotides in any number besides 3 results in a "frame-shift mutation."
This is because every 3 nucleotides of DNA/mRNA exons codes for a single amino acid in the synthesis of a protein. This triplet codon theory means that if 3 nucleotides are added or deleted then an amino acid will be added or lost, but subsequent codons and amino acids will still be read correctly.
However, if any number of nucleotides other than 3 are added or removed, then the codons following the mutation will be out of "sync," in terms of the reading order.
Hence it is called a frame-shift mutation because it shift the reading frame when translating nucleic acids into proteins. Frame shifts will lead to the wrong amino acids being adding in the wrong order for the rest of the code after the mutation.
Answer:
Tan fur helps the mice protect themselves from predators
Explanation:
The entrenchment of this phenotype in the population is powered by natural selection pressures. The mice with fur color that enable them to camouflage with their environment are predated less than mice with other fur colors. These tan mice are therefore more likely to survive and pass their genes to the next generation. Through successive generations, the allelic frequency for the tan fur color increases until it is the dominant allele in the population.
