Answer:
0.0177
Explanation:
Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disease, thereby an individual must have both copies of the CFTR mutant alleles to have this disease. The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium states that p² + 2pq + q² = 1, where p² represents the frequency of the homo-zygous dominant genotype (normal phenotype), q² represents the frequency of the homo-zygous recessive genotype (cystic fibrosis phenotype), and 2pq represents the frequency of the heterozygous genotype (individuals that carry one copy of the CFTR mutant allele). Moreover, under Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the sum of the dominant 'p' allele frequency and the recessive 'q' allele frequency is equal to 1. In this case, we can observe that the frequency of the homo-zygous recessive condition for cystic fibrosis (q²) is 1/3200. In consequence, the frequency of the recessive allele for cystic fibrosis can be calculated as follows:
1/3200 = q² (have two CFTR mutant alleles) >>
q = √ (1/3200) = 1/56.57 >>
- Frequency of the CFTR allele q = 1/56.57 = 0.0177
- Frequency of the dominant 'normal' allele p = 1 - q = 1 - 0.0177 = 0.9823
Answer:
They were not around at that time or either from it being so hot they just disappeared/melted.
Explanation:
Answer:
each new cell needs a DNA copy, which serves as instructions on how to function as a cell. DNA replicates before a cell divides. The replication process is semi-conservative, which means that when DNA creates a copy, half of the old strand is retained in the new strand to reduce the number of copy errors.
Explanation:
Answer:
1) G C G U A U G (C C C) (U U U) (A A C) (C G C)
2) U U A U G (C G U) (U A G) (G C G) (U U U) (A U U)
3) U A U G (G C U) (U A G) (A A U) (A A C) (C C G) (U A A)
4) U U A U G (C A A) (A G G) (G C G) (U A U) (C U U) (U A G)
5) represent codons which are groupings of 3 consecutive nucletides
Explanation:
Opposites for REGULAR mDNA base pairings are T= A and G = C, however, since it is mRNA, your base pairings change a little. G is still to C BUT Thymine (T) becomes Uracil (U) so A= U instead of A= T. So big difference between mRNA and mDNA is that Thymine changes to Uracil and vice versa depending on how the code is being translated.
