Answer:

The correct option is b. 0.453

Explanation:

To calculate the coefficient of coincidence, CC, we must use the next formula:

CC= observed double recombinant frequency/expected double recombinant frequency

<u>Note</u>:  

• <em>Observed double recombinant frequency=total number of observed double recombinant individuals/total number of individuals </em>

<em>• Expected double recombinant frequency: recombination frequency in region I x recombination frequency in region II. </em>

CC= (7/1000)/0.16x0.08

CC= 0.007/0.0128

CC=0.5468

The coefficient of interference, I, is complementary with CC.

I = 1 - CC

I = 1 - 0.5468

I = 0.4531

If a segment of DNA were replicated without any errors, the replicated strand would have the following sequence of nucleotides:
Cerrena [4.2K]

5'-ACTCGTGA-3'-frameshift mutation (number of nucleotides in a DNA sequence is not divisible by three). deletion, one nucleotide in DNA is deleted, in this case A

5'-ATTACGTGA-3'- base substitution, C is substituted with T

5'-ACTACGTGT-3'- base substitution, A is substituted with T

5'-ACTAAGTGA-3'- base substitution, C is substituted with A

Substitution is a type of mutation in whichonly one base is changed. They can be:

• Nonsense mutations-when substitution leads to the formation of a stop codon instead of a codon

• Missense mutations-when one nucleotide is substituted and a different codon is formed

•       Silent mutations-when a nucleotide is substituted and the same amino acid is produced
