Answer:
In the mRNA sequence AUGGUGCAUGUC the maximum number of amino acids that can be encoded is 4 (option A).
Explanation:
Messenger RNA (mRNA) has a sequence of nitrogenous bases produced by the transcription of a DNA strand. This sequence of bases is organized in triplets or codons —made up of 3 nitrogenous bases— that can encode an amino acid, or mark the beginning or end —STOP codon—of protein synthesis.
From the sequence:
AUGGUGCAUGUC
Four codons are obtained, each of which encodes a different amino acid:
<em>Codons: AUG-GUG-CAU-GUC</em>
<em>Amino acids: Met - Val - His - Val</em>
<em>Methionine Valine Histidina and Valine are the four amino acids encoded by the 12 nucleotide sequence of the mRNA.</em>
Answer: <em>Punctuated equilibrium is the hypothesis that evolution occurs at an irregular rate through geologic time. </em>

Answer:
4 possible combinations of gametes
Explanation:
The animal is considered an heterozygotic dihybrid because it involves two genes that have different alleles for both genes. The dihybrid animal undergoes meiosis to produce gametes. According to Mendel in his laws of segregation and independent assortment, the alleles of the two genes separate into gametes independently of one another to produce 4 types of gametes.
Number of possible combinations of gametes formed by an heterozygote can be determined by using 2^n, where n is the number of characters. Number of characters or genes involved in this case is 2, Hence, 2^2 = 4 gametes.
The allelic combination in the four gametes are: AB, Ab, aB, ab.
