The correct answers for this question are these:
<span>What could happen if the DNA replication process encounters an error while coding?
- An acquired mutation would occur.
- No noticeable errors would occur to the organism because not all DNA codes for proteins.
- DNA would convert into RNA.
- A mutated trait could be exhibited</span>
A mold was developing in some of the culture dishes used by Sir Alexander Fleming and was eliminating some of the bacterial population. The hypothesis is that the mold was generating a chemical, which was toxic to the bacteria in the dishes and killed them.
The hypothesis was examined by separating the Penicillium and administering it into the solution of nutrient broth. After the growth of Penicillium it was withdrawn from the broth. The broth was then eventually supplemented to the bacteria and the bacteria died. Thus, it can be concluded that the hypothesis is supported.
Answer:
0.04 for 6 legs starfish and 0.96 for 5 legs starfish.
Explanation:
The allele frequency for the 6 legs starfish is 0.04 whereas, the allele frequency for the 5 legs starfish is 0.96 because there is only one 6 legs starfish in the given population as compared to 5 legs starfish. The low population of 6 legs starfish is due to the presence of recessive allele while on the other hand, higher population of 5 legs starfish is due to the presence of dominant allele. The allele frequencies for both population is done by dividing the allele of interest by total number of alleles present in the population.
