Answer:
No, a blood test could not eliminate the father.
Explanation:
The mother had B type blood, so the possible genotypes are BB and BI. The father had A type blood, so the possible genotypes are AA and AI. The child had O type blood, so the only possible genotype is II. If the mother has the genotype BI and the father has the genotype AI, then there is a 25% chance the child will have the blood type O, or II (I used a punnet square with the genotypes BI and AI to solve this.)
Answer:
The type of mutation that occurs when in the DNA strand there is a change from guanine to cytosine is a nonsense mutation, since the triplet that should encode the amino acid encodes a stop codon and the protein cannot be completely synthesized.
Explanation:
The nonsense mutation consists of a change in one of the bases of the stranded DNA, which is transcribed into an altered mRNA, producing a stop codon, instead of an amino acid.
In the table it is observed that the CCA codon is a stop codon that cuts off the protein synthesis prematurely, leaving it incomplete and probably non-functional.
Sometimes this type of mutation can alter the sequence of amino acids but the protein may be complete enough to partially fulfill its function.
Answers should include three of the following ideas:
*The body needs exercise to eliminate wastes properly.
*Food poisoning can be prevented by cooking food properly and by sanitizing areas that come into contact with raw food.
*Some forms of functional dypepsia can be prevented by avoiding overeating, avoiding too many fatty foods, and chewing food adequately.
I hope you get just as much help with YOUR questions as you're giving other people with THEIR questions.
