As you continue to cross the offspring resulting from the previous question with albinos, what will occur in the growing populat

The  offspring is/are going to be albino as well, because being albino is caused by being homozygous (true-breeding) recessive on the allele for albinism.  

Let us recall that ALLELES are alternative versions of genes; Gregor Mendel's term for alleles is 'traits'. A monohybrid cross is a cross that follows the inheritance of a single gene (in this case, we are investigating the inheritance of the allele for albinism).  

Below is an example of a cross between two albino parents:

Let 'a' be the allele for albinism; and being an albino means being homozygous recessive for 'a', which gives us the genotype 'aa' for both parents

           Female:                          Male:

              aa                 x                aa

We would expect that a 15-nucleotide sequence that includes a stop codon at the end (as part of the 15-nucleotide sequence) will
slega [8]

Answer: Four amino acids.

Explanation:

RNA (ribonucleic acid) and DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) are polymers made up of long chains of nucleotides. Thus, a nucleotide is the basic building block of nucleic acids and consists of a sugar molecule (ribose in RNA or deoxyribose in DNA) linked to a phosphate group and a nitrogenous base. <u>The nitrogenous bases can be Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G) or Uracil (U) replacing T in RNA</u>. DNA is the molecule that stores the genetic information to synthesize polypeptides or proteins (set of amino acids). When proteins need to be created, DNA is transcribed into RNA and this RNA is translated in ribosomes to create polypeptides.

Complementarity is the ability to combine with their complement. A and T (or U) are complementary, while C and G are complementary to each other. Complementarity is the principle of replication and transcription, because it is a propery of both DNA and RNA sequences. Their the nucleotide bases at each position of the sequences are complementary, allowing cells to copy information.

Nucleotides in RNA are grouped into codons, which consist of groups of 3 nucleotides where each codon codes for an amino acid. Therefore, <u>the sequence of bases in nucleic acids determines which protein will be synthesized</u>. Protein synthesis begins with a start codon (AUG, which codes for the amino acid methionine) and ends with a stop codon (UGA, UAG and UAA). So, if there are 15 nucleotides, there are 15 bases. Since they are grouped in groups of 3, we will have a polypeptide of 4 amino acids.

<u>3 nucleotides form a codon, so 12 nucleotides form 4 codons giving 4 amino acids. The last codon, is formed by the last 3 nucleotides and form the stop codon that stop protein synthesis</u>.

Only individuals belonging to the same species are able to
True [87]

There are some possible answers which all mean the same thing:

- Produce fertile offspring

- Produce offspring

- Reproduce


→ Only individuals of a same species (sometimes genus) can reproduce because in order to reproduce animals need to have a similar genetic code, and there is now code more similar than the one of individuals of their own species.



Hope it helped,
