Allele specific oligonucleotides (ASO) can be used to determine the different alleles present in a DNA sample. Single sperm, whi

ch have completed meiosis, can be used for a polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The amplified DNA is then spotted to filters and hybridized with probes that recognize single nucleotide differences. A sperm sample was collected from a single individual and DNA was extracted from individual sperm. For each DNA sample, four different regions of the genome were amplified using PCR (called A, B, D, and E). For each DNA sample, ASO probes were used to determine the allele present (Either allele 1 or 2) for each region of the genome amplified. X indicates the allele is present and - indicates the allele is not present.
Number of Sperm Loci and Alleles
A1 A2 B1 B2 D1 D2 E1 E2
45 X - X - X - - X
46 - X X - - X X -
7 X - X - X - X -
8 - X X - - X - X
17 X - X - - X - X
19 - X X - X - X -
(Notice that there are only six classes of genotypes among the products of meiosis. For three segregating genes, you would expect to see eight different genotypic combinations. The missing genotypes are the DCO combinations and thus you should figure out what combinations are missing and assign them a value of zero)
What is an estimate of the map distance for each pair of genes?
(for unlinked gene pairs enter 50 and round off your answer to one significant digit to the right of the decimal point, i.e. 12.8 mu. If can't determine linkage, enter "-1")
A-D distance?
D-E distance?

A portion of an mRNA attached to a ribosome reads: 5 GACCAUUUUUGA 3
aniked [119]

Answer:

a) phenylalanine

Explanation:

A triplet codon results into a particular amino acid. mRNA is read in 5' to 3' direction during translation. tRNA carrying an amino acid enters the A site first. Then a peptide bond is formed between the new and old amino acid. The polypeptide along with the tRNA moves to P site while the now empty old tRNA moves from P to E site and exits. Hence a tRNA is first in A site followed by P site and then finally E site.

Here, a tRNA with histidine amino acid is present in the P site. From the given sequence, only CAU codon can result into histidine. So if CAU region is present in P site that means that UUU will be present in A site. UUU codes for phenylalanine amino acid so the tRNA entering the A site will carry phenylalanine.

Using a food label, explain what each section will tell you and why that would be important to, say, a long-distance runner.
IRINA_888 [86]
Nutrition labels diagram1 - Start with the serving information at the top.

This will tell you the size of a single serving and the total number of servings per container (package).

2 - Next, check total calories per serving and container.

Pay attention to the calories per serving and how many calories you’re really consuming if you eat the whole package. If you double the servings you eat, you double the calories and nutrients.

The next section of information on a nutrition label is about the amounts of specific nutrients in the product.

3 - Limit certain nutrients.

Check key nutrients and understand what you’re looking for. Not all fats are bad , and total sugars can include both natural and added sugars. Limit the amounts of added sugars , saturated fat and sodium you eat, and avoid trans fat. When choosing among different brands or similar products, compare labels and choose foods with less of these nutrients when possible..

4 - Get enough of the beneficial nutrients.

Make sure you get enough of the nutrients your body needs, such as: calcium, choline, dietary fiber, iron, magnesium, potassium, and vitamins A, C, D and E.*

5 - Understand % Daily Value.

The % Daily Value (DV) tells you the percentage of each nutrient in a single serving, in terms of the daily recommended amount. If you want to consume less of a nutrient (such as saturated fat or sodium), choose foods with a lower % DV (5 percent or less). If you want to consume more of a nutrient (such as fiber), choose foods with a higher % DV (20 percent or more).

Here are more tips for getting as much health information as possible from the Nutrition Facts label:

Remember that the information shown in the label is based on a diet of 2,000 calories a day. You may need less or more than 2,000 calories depending upon your age, gender, activity level, and whether you’re trying to lose, gain or maintain your weight.

When the Nutrition Facts label says a food contains “0 g” of trans fat, but includes “partially hydrogenated oil” in the ingredient list, it means the food contains some trans fat, but less than 0.5 grams per serving. So, if you eat more than one serving, you could end up eating too much trans fat.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates the Nutrition Facts label seen on packaged foods and drinks. In 2016, the FDA released changes to the label to make it easier to see how many calories and added sugars are in a product and to make serving sizes more realistic. These changes are still being implemented throughout the food industry, so for now you may see the redesigned version shown here or the old original version.
