The answer is; deletion mutation
This type of mutation mostly causes a phenomenon called frameshift mutation whereby the 3-codon sequence reading frame is shifted causing the amino acids translated, downstream of the deletion site, to be altered. This can gravely affect the function of the translated proteins and result in genetic disease.
Answer:
1/8
Explanation:
An individual must have all three dominant alleles to be red, in homozygosis or heterozygosis (R_E_D_).
<u>The parental cross was:</u>
RREEDD x rreedd
F1: RrEeDd
<u>The test cross</u> is between the RrEeDd indiviudals and homozygous recessive rreedd.
The genes assort independently, so we can use Mendel's law of segregation to predict separately for each gene the proportion of the offspring that will have the dominant alleles.
<h3><u>Rr x rr</u></h3>
1/2 Rr
1/2 rr
<h3><u>Ee x ee</u></h3>
1/2 Ee
1/2 ee
<h3><u>Dd x dd</u></h3>
1/2 Dd
1/2 dd
Genes are independent, so the probability of having a R_E_D_ offpsring is calculated by multiplying the individual probabilities of having a dominant allele for each gene:
1/2 (Rr) × 1/2 (Ee) × 1/2 (Dd)= 1/8
An autotroph is an organism that makes food for itself like plants
It does in fact that's really what natural selection is all about it uses the characteristics that would better help the organism survive therefore making the species thrive
