Answer:
b) 6
Explanation:
There are three different alleles (A,B,C) which are responsible for coat coloration but only combination of two can move forward because there are two loci at every homologous pair of chromosomes.
Thus, six combinations can be formed as AA, AB, AC, BB, BC, CC.
<span>B. The have been Earth's only hominine for the last 24,000 years.
After the unknown eradication of the Homo Neanderthals, Homo Sapiens became the only homonine for the last 24,000 years. That is to say, that modern humans are the result of the evolution of homo sapiens to homo sapiens sapiens.</span>
Ans.
The codons show genetic codes, made up of triplet of nucleotides in DNA or RNA that code for specific amino acids. The different codes can code for a same a amino acid. When a substitutional mutation occurs in genetic material, it shows substitution of one nucleotide pair for another and leads to formation of a different codon.
The first mutation that leads to CAU to CAC, it will not show any potential damage as both CAU and CAC codons code for histidine amino acid.
The second mutation that leads to UGU to UGC will also not show any damage to protein as both of these codons code for cysteine amino acid.
The third codon, that results UCU to UUU will cause a potential damage to protein as UUU codes for phenyl alanine (an aromatic, non-polar amino acid) and UCU codes for serine (a polar amino acid).
Thus, the correct answer is 'option C).' as in a protein, substitution of serine with phenylalanine will lead to change in structure and function of that protein.
