Sex Linked
In a sex-linked disease, it is usually males who are affected because they have a single copy of X chromosome that carries the mutation. In females, the effect of the mutation may be masked by the second healthy copy of the X chromosome.

Answer: The maximum number of amino acids that could be coded is 2

Explanation:

A codon in this microorganism is 2 bases instead of 3 bases .
In order to encode a protein a sequence requires a start and stop codon

If you assume no start codon: then only 2 bases would make up the stop codon.

This leaves 4 bases which is 2 codons. This would encode 2 amino acids.

If you assume a start and stop codon, then each codon would be allocated 2 base pairs each = 4 base pairs
This only leaves 2 base pairs, a single codon which would only code for 1 amino acid

Solve for v<br>negative 38= v/2

Nadusha1986 [10]

$- 38 = \frac{v}{2}$

$\text{Multiply by 2 on both sides, }$

$2 \times ( - 38) = \frac{v}{ \cancel{2}} \times \cancel{2} \\ \\ \\ \\ = > - 76 = v \times 1 \\ \\ \\ = > - 76 = v$

So, value of v is - 76

lukranit [14]

Answer:

TCTAGGA

Explanation:

The deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecule consists of two single-strands, which are composed of four different types of nucleotide bases: Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Guanine (G) and Cytosine (C). These two DNA strands run in an anti-parallel direction to each other. According to the base-pairing rules, Adenine always pairs with Thymine, while Guanine always pairs with Cytosine. In DNA, Thymine and Adenine form two hydrogen bonds between them, while Guanine and Cytosine form three hydrogen bonds between them.
