Answer: c. are spliced out of the message.

Explanation: Intron are non-coding portion of the DNA sequence. They do not code for any specific amino acid and are spliced or removed before splicing.

Exons are DNA sequence that code for specific amino acid they are usually left after introns are removed and are joined together before translation into amino acid sequence. Intron splicing can lead to splicing some exons which can lead to formation of an entirely new amino acid or protein.

Spliceosome are enzymes for splicing introns.

What is the type of inheritance shown in the following pedigree? Blue represents no disease symptoms, pink represents having dis
klasskru [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the disorder is recessive, neither parent has to have the disorder because

they can be heterozygous. The characteristic features of autosomal recessive inheritance is as follows:-

•Appears in both sexes with equal frequency

• Trait tend to skip generations

• Affected offspring are usually born to unaffected parents

• When both parents are heterozygous approx. 1/4 of the progeny will be affected

• Appears more frequently among the children of consanguineous marriages.

The given pedigree follows these features. So the correct option is 'Autosomal recessive trait'.

Please correct me If I am wrong :)

.. Which of the following mutations would have the potential to affect future generations of
ch4aika [34]

Answer choices:

  • A frame shift mutation in the X chromosome of a cheek cell
  • A chromosomal mutation in the Y chromosome of a kidney cell
  • A point mutation in the first chromosome of a sperm cell
  • A substitution mutation in the third chromosome of a uterus cell

Answers:

A point mutation in the first chromosome of a sperm cell

Explanation:

Only mutations that affect the germ line are passed on to the next generation. Therefore, only mutations in the egg and sperm of an individual have the potential to affect the next generation.

Mutations in cheek cells, kidney cells, and uterus cells might cause cell death or cancer. This genetic material is not passed on to the next generation, only the egg and sperm contribute this material. Therefore, only mutations here will affect the generation.
