Answer:C) Traits like this are determined by the genes passed from parents to their children.

Explanation: Every trait in an organism is controlled by a pair of gene. A gene that controls a trait usually have two alleles. During fertilization, for every pair of gene one allele is inherited from the mother while the other allele is inherited from the father and the two alleles come together to form a pair of gene. Every trait in an organism is determined by genes that are passed from the parents to the offsprings.

Restriction enzyme HinfI cleaves a five nucleotide DNA sequence GA(A/T)TC. The ambiguity in the central position - (A/T) - means
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

C) 2.0 kb

Explanation:

It is given that out of the 4 nucleotides A, T, C & G each one has equal probability to occur at any position on the DNA molecule which simply means that the probability of occurrence of any nucleotide at a position is 1/4.

Also, it is given that probability of occurrence of either A or T at 3rd position is equal which means that the probability at that particular position will be 2/4 = 1/2.

Now, GA(A/T)TC is the DNA sequence where Restriction enzyme HinfI cleaves so the total probability of an average HinfI cleavage fragment will be = 1/4 x 1/4 x 1/2 x 1/4 x 1/4 = 0.00195 = 0.2 i.e. 2 kb.
