Answer;
a segment of chromosomal DNA
Explanation;
A gene is a hereditary unit consisting of a sequence of DNA that occupies a specific location on a chromosome and determines a particular characteristic in an organism. Genes undergo mutation when their DNA sequence changes.
It is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Genes are made up of DNA. Some genes act as instructions to make molecules called proteins. However, many genes do not code for proteins.
Alleles are forms of the same gene with small differences in their sequence of DNA bases. These small differences contribute to each person’s unique physical features.
Answer:
Translation is the process in which ribosomes in the cytoplasm or endoplasmic reticulum synthesize proteins. The process starts where the mRNAs (messenger RNA) copies the DNA and sends this message to the ribosome. In the ribosome for each triplet of nucleotide an amino acid is bond to the growing chain of amino acid that will eventually form a protein.
You can look up for the translation for the genetic on the internet. Which tells you which triplet codifies for an specific amino acid.
If the code reads. CGC GCG CGC GCG etc.
The result would be an a peptide/protein containing alternating arginines and alanines, because CGC codifies for Arginine and GCG codifies for alanine.
The following tests can determine the mineral in a rock specimen:
1. How does the rock crumble or split under pressure?
2. What is the texture of the rock?
3. Observing it under a magnifying lens.
4. Determine the color of the rock
Test 1 and 3 determines if the rock is granular and the types of grains in the rock. Test 3 also determines if the rock has layers hence sedimentary rock.
Determining whether color of the rock is dark or light also helps identify the mineral and type of rock.
I would say the scientific method?
