Answer:

Half of the gametes carry one allele of a chromosome, and the other half carry the other allele.Then, fertilization of an egg by a sperm creates a new individual that now possesses two factors for each trait, just like the parents.

Explanation:

The female gamete is called ova which bear 'XX' chromosome and the male gamete is called as sperm that contain 'XY' chromosome.

Fertilization means the fusion of male gamete with the female gamete, which occurs at the ampulla of fallopian tube.This  causes formation of zygote which bear haploid cells.

During fertilization, the sperm is capacitated and is attracted towards progesterone which contain CatSper receptor and helps in increase intracellular calcium level.

The tail of sperm disintegrates after the entry of sperm towards the cytoplasm and cortical reaction takes place.Zygote formation takes place after fusion of perm with the ova.

The sperm undergo capacitation that increase the motility and membrane destabilization occurs.

The wild-type form of a gene encodes a protein of length 100 amino acids. A mutant allele has a UAA (instead of the wild-type, C
Orlov [11]

Answer:

48 amino acids

Explanation:

The wild type gene codes for a protein with 100 amino acids. One amino acid is encoded by one triplet code of the gene. This means that the wild type gene has a total 100 triplets or 300 nucleotides to code for a protein of 100 amino acid. Mutation in this protein has introduced the code "UAA" at the 49th codon. The code "UAA" is a stop codon. Therefore, the mRNA transcribed from the mutant allele would code for a protein having 48 amino acids as the protein synthesis will be stopped once the stop codon at the 49th position is read.
